An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced healthcare professional from a learning disabilities background and with a passion for education to join the School of Nursing.
You will contribute to the development and delivery of a range of modules at different academic levels (4-7), across the areas of learning disabilities, including those on our pre-registration FdSc Nursing Associate and BSc (Hons) and MSc courses, and post-qualifying BSc/MSc Healthcare Practice and MSc Advanced Clinical Practice programmes.
Your teaching focus will include modules such as leadership. You may also contribute to other modules aligned to your area of expertise and lead modules as appropriate.
The Person
You are likely to be a nurse or allied health professional with current professional registration and a Master’s degree in an aspect of healthcare (or be working towards this). It is also likely that you will hold a teaching qualification such as the UKPSF2 or PGCHE, but if not you will be willing to undertake our in-house teaching programme during your probationary period.
You will be creative, enthusiastic and flexible, with excellent communication skills and an ability to inspire and teach a diverse range of students at different stages in their professional career. You may be an established lecturer, or highly experienced practitioner or practice educator with a keen interest in higher education.
The Faculty
Our people are passionate about developing nurses for the future, in each of the four fields of nursing – adult, child, learning disability and mental health; and are committed to providing contemporary, cutting-edge continuing professional development for qualified health care professionals.
