      Job summary

      We are looking to recruit a highly motivated medical education fellow in medical education with an interest in simulation training. The aim of this post is to work together with the Postgraduate and Undergraduate Medical Education teams to help coordinate, deliver and develop medical education, across the interdisciplinary spectrum, at our main site, the Princess Alexandra hospital NHS Trust in Harlow.

      There will be an emphasis on helping to deliver and support medical simulation training within the department as well as helping deliver medical education to medical students from Queen Mary's University London (QMUL) and Anglia Ruskin University (ARU) Medical Schools.

      The medical education fellow will help to supervise and work closely alongside a group of FY3 teaching fellows who are employed in joint clinical and educational roles within the trust.

      The post is designed to allow full time educational activities but includes time allowance to maintain clinical practice in your chosen speciality area for one day per week, at a level dependant on the applicant's experience and qualification.

      The post holder will be encouraged and supported to further their educational development through the formal study of medical education. Enrolment in a formal programme such as a postgraduate certificate would be supported and time allowed in the programme for study.

  • About the company

      National Health Service (NHS) is the umbrella term for the publicly-funded healthcare systems of the United Kingdom (UK). The founding principles were that services should be comprehensive, universal and free at the point of delivery—a health service based on clinical need, not ability to pay. Each service provides a comprehensive range of health services, free at the point of use for people ordinarily resident in the United Kingdom apart from dental treatment and optical care.
