An exciting, part time (0.6 FTE), fixed term opportunity has arisen for an experienced veterinary surgeon (MRCVS) with a passion for inspiring undergraduate students in all aspects of small animal practice. Experienced clinicians who wish to move into education and develop their teaching expertise within a multidisciplinary department are encouraged to apply.

The role

The primary focus of the role will be to support the clinical teaching across the curriculum, preparing our students for their final year rotations. The role will have a strong focus on small group practical teaching, alongside lectures and tutorials. There may be a requirement to travel to our offsite partners.

About you

The successful appointee will be a UK registered (or eligible to register) veterinary surgeon and will bring a strong understanding and experience of small animal first opinion practice and ideally shelter medicine to complement existing staff in their ability to deliver high quality teaching across the curriculum. A teaching qualification is not essential but prior experience of teaching veterinary undergraduates would be an advantage. Those with extensive experience of supporting new graduates are also encouraged to apply. A post-graduate certificate or qualification in subject specialism is desirable.

Enthusiasm, adaptability and creativity are essential, alongside excellent interpersonal and teamwork skills.

What we can offer

In return we offer a generous salary with a 10% salary uplift for MRCVS registered applicants, pension, relocation assistance, flexible working options including job share, access to world-class leisure facilities on campus, a range of travel schemes and supportive family friendly benefits including an excellent on-site nursery.

Further Information

To apply please attach your CV and a cover letter evidencing your suitability against the essential criteria required for this role as outlined in the person specification.

Interviews are scheduled to be held in person on Tuesday 16^th July 2024.
