To deliver high quality undergraduate clinical teaching within Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust.

To provide a broad range of educational experience to each fellow in order to progress their scholarship, teaching skills and clinical acumen.

In addition to the above, the post will allow the post holder sufficient independence to develop their own area of interest within medical education and to study towards a recognised teaching qualification.

This post is ideal for a candidate with an interest in Emergency Medicine and Education, wishing to broaden their career following their Foundation training. The time is split equally between providing clinical care in the department and education, predominantly to undergraduates.

Although it is not a formal training post, the successful candidate will be working alongside trainees in nationally recognised training positions, and receive the same support, supervision, and access to teaching as them. Supervision from senior doctors in Emergency Medicine.

Please note we reserve the right to close this vacancy prior to the closing date once the required number of suitable applications have been received.
