Undergraduate Clinical Teaching Fellows Full Time

We are looking for enthusiastic and innovative Clinical Teaching Fellows, who have a keen interest in education delivery, for a one-year, out-of-training program post in undergraduate medical education. This is an exciting opportunity for someone keen to develop and improve their skills as an educator and enhance their project skills.

We encourage our Fellows to join our priority project work, and there will be opportunities to lead patient safety, student support, and immersive technology education projects. Protected timetabled sessions allow Fellows to pursue their specialist clinical interests.

Our close collaboration with Imperial College provides enriching networking and developmental opportunities. We also encourage and fund postgraduate certificates in education and support our Fellows to engage in educational research, complete publications, and present at national conferences.

Interviews are expected to take place in the week commencing 16 March 2026.

As demand for high-quality medical student placements continues to grow, we have recently expanded our Fellow cohort to ensure we can meet increasing placement requirements and maintain excellent educational support for learners. Our Fellows are often the first point of contact for medical students on placement and therefore have a pivotal role in all aspects of education delivery, student assessments, and student welfare. This includes delivering a range of medical education sessions in safe learning environments, coordinating student timetables, and participating in student exams.
