PMED Leadership & Management Fellow

PMED Leadership & Management Fellow

The closing date is 22 March 2026

The Medical Education Fellowship in Leadership and Management is an exciting opportunity for a resident doctor with a strong interest in the future of postgraduate medical education and training focusing on leadership and management.

This Fellowship is available for commencement in August 2026 and the post is for 12 months.

The Fellowships provide 2-days per week (on average) to work as part of the Postgraduate Medical Education Department (PMED) to develop and deliver a selection of Leadership and Management projects.

All Fellows will be expected to commit a minimum of 4 days in the year to the Clinical Skills Teaching Faculty.

For trainees, the Fellowship may be undertaken in‑programme or out‑of‑programme. There are various options including in‑training, less‑than‑full‑time training, OOPT, OOPE and OOPP. We will work with you to find the working and training arrangements that suit you and your department best.

Any necessary extension to certificate of completion of training (CCT) date is also negotiated and approved locally, with involvement of your Training Programme Director where appropriate.

With more than 19,000 colleagues, we are the largest employer in Nottinghamshire and one of the biggest and busiest NHS Trusts in the country, serving more than 2.5m residents of Nottingham and Nottinghamshire and a further four million people across the East Midlands and beyond. Our Trust spans over three sites including Queen’s Medical Centre (QMC), Nottingham City Hospital and Ropewalk House.

We are home to the East Midlands Major Trauma Centre, the Nottingham Children's Hospital and in partnership with the University of Nottingham we host a Biomedical Research Centre carrying out vital research into hearing, digestive diseases, respiratory, musculoskeletal disease, mental health and imaging.

As a teaching hospital, we are instrumental in the education and training of doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals. We are proud of our strong relationships with universities across the East Midlands, including the University of Nottingham, Nottingham Trent University and Loughborough University.

As one of the NHS Trusts identified in the New Hospital Programme, a programme of investment in NHS hospitals, we have extensive plans to improve our hospitals and the services we deliver for patients. As well as the redevelopment of the QMC and City Hospital, we are currently building a brand‑new 70‑bed NHS rehabilitation facility on the Stanford Hall Rehabilitation Estate near Loughborough which aims to transform rehabilitation provision in England.
