NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is one of the largest healthcare systems in the UK employing around 40,000 staff in a wide range of clinical and non-clinical professions and job roles. We deliver acute hospital, primary, community and mental health care services to a population of over 1.15 million and a wider population of 2.2 million when our regional and national services are included.
This is a fixed-term post of 12 months.
The Directorate of Medical Education is seeking to appoint enthusiastic individuals to assist in the delivery of undergraduate teaching across NHSGGC acute sites, at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital, Gartnavel General Hospital, Glasgow Royal Infirmary, the Royal Alexandra Hospital, and Inverclyde Royal Hospital. These posts would ideally suit any post Foundation trainee who has an interest and experience in teaching.
The posts are for one year from August 2025.
The post-holders will focus on the organisation, development and provision of teaching to undergraduate medical students from Glasgow University. Teaching will comprise a mixture of bedside teaching, facilitated tutorials and simulation. A regular contribution to other teaching, including multi-disciplinary teaching and supporting the NHSGGC Widening Access to Medicine Programme will also be expected. The postholders will also coordinate teaching by other staff.
It is expected that 8 sessions (32 hours) per week will be devoted to teaching activities (worked flexibly). The remaining 2 sessions are available to maintain clinical practice.
These posts do not attract a banding.
Allocation of site specific clinical and teaching duties will be outlined in the postholder’s job plan organised by the site Hospital Sub Deans, Associate Director of Medical Education and Simulation Lead. Other duties may be allocated from time to time as directed by the Director of Medical Education.
Candidates must be fully registered with the GMC with a current Licence to Practice, and must have completed Foundation training. Previous experience of teaching medical students / doctors within a clinical environment is essential.
Evidence of an interest in and an aptitude for teaching is essential; and possession of a higher postgraduate qualification (e.g. MRCP, MRCS, FRCA) highly desirable.
