The University of Leicester School of Healthcare is amongst the forefront of progressive and dynamic nurse education. The undergraduate MSci Nursing with Leadership (Dual and Single Field) course is one of the most innovative programmes in the UK and aims to develop the next generation of nurse leaders. The four year pre-registration dual qualification course is one of the first in the country that has been developed to train future nurse leaders, and equip them with the skills and knowledge they need to meet the challenges that the constantly evolving healthcare landscape provides. Due to the continuation of the MSci Nursing with Leadership and the introduction of Single Registration pathways, we want to recruit existing dynamic and passionate Nurse Lecturers or clinicians straight from practice, who will join our journey and help propel us towards excellence. You will be supported to achieve a teaching qualification, if not already held, and you will have opportunity to participate in the University of Leicester mentor connect scheme to help further your professional development. You will join a developing and enthusiastic team that is committed to providing student focused clinical education and academic excellence, in our new purpose built education and simulation facility based at the Leicester Royal Infirmary.

You will be part of the School of Healthcare and work alongside multi-disciplinary teams that include Midwifery, Operating Department Practitioner, Physiotherapy, Radiography and Pharmacy.
