Clinical Teaching Fellow

We are seeking to appoint Clinical Teaching Fellows (CTFs) to support the on-going delivery of the graduate entry MBChB programme within the Three Counties Medical School (TCMS) at the University of Worcester. The School’s MBChB curriculum is centred around problem-based learning (PBL), active applied learning (e.g. simulation), with an emphasis on early patient contact and community-orientated clinical placements.  Founded with the aim of widening access to careers in medicine and retaining graduates in the local area, this is an exciting opportunity to be part of the team, which opened to students in September 2023.  

Applications are invited for 2 whole time equivalent Clinical Teaching Fellows in Anatomy, Physiology and Clinical Skills. These are career development posts at FY2/ST level to facilitate the learning of the next generation of doctors. You will be involved in developing and delivering active learning sessions in the practical application of anatomy, physiology and clinical skills primarily in Phase 1 (years 1&2). You will receive training from a team of enthusiastic clinical educators and will have opportunities for professional development, including support with gaining a teaching qualification.  

Applicants will have a keen interest in medical education and training. Applicants must be registered with the GMC and have a minimum of 2 years clinical experience after graduation from medical school. Applications from individuals wishing to work less than full time are welcomed. The Medical School has close relationships with local NHS primary and secondary care providers, and we can support you in seeking clinical opportunities alongside academic commitments.  

The post is based at the Severn campus. It will be fixed term appointment for 12 months, with an expected start date of August 2025. Subject to satisfactory performance, it may be possible to extend the post for a second 12-month period.
