An exciting opportunity has arisen for a highly motivated and experienced individual to join PCSM. As Programme Officer you will have responsibility for the day to day planning and delivery of all operational aspects of the MBBS programme, working closely with the academic team and with support from the Programme Administrator.

We are the University of Cumbria, a place where people are at the heart of all we do, where enriching the lives of our students, staff and the communities we serve means we make a difference that really matters.
Now is a very exciting time to be joining us because we are delivering a new strategic plan focused on making the most of our three most valuable assets; People, Place and Partnerships, to become a catalyst for economic well-being for our region, nationally and internationally.
The University of Cumbria and Imperial College London have formed a strategic partnership to open a new medical school to develop and deliver the Pears Cumbria School of Medicine (PCSM). The first students start a bespoke 4-year post graduate MBBS programme in 2025/26. Applying the University of Cumbria's experience in training nurses, midwives and other professions allied to medicine, alongside Imperial's expertise in medical education, we aim to produce doctors who are embedded in their local community ready to contribute to services across the region and beyond.
