Undergraduate Medical Education Fellow – 1 Post – F3 and above
An exciting opportunity is available for the post of Undergraduate Medical Education Fellow. This post will be focused on developing the undergraduate education experience for medical students at LGT. This is a twelve month role aimed at those who wish to build on their personal teaching experience and develop expertise in educational theory and practice in a supervised environment.
The post will be based at the Lewisham site starting August 2022. There will be plenty of flexibility and opportunity for the post-holder to work cross-site should their projects warrant it.
Start date will be from the first Wednesday in August 2022.
For further details / informal visits contact:
Dr Catherine Mathews – Director of Medical Education –[email protected]
The post is designed to provide a wide range of educational experience for trainees who wish to make a commitment to education as part of their career. An enthusiasm for teaching is a prerequisite, but no assumptions will be made about formal knowledge of educational theory or practice. Hands-on teaching will be central to the post, as will a critical engagement with educational issues around providing undergraduate training in a changing context, both nationally and locally.
There is inbuilt flexibility within the role such that the post-holder can pursue their own area of interest. LGT has an expanding and forward-looking simulation faculty as well as faculty members at the forefront of ‘gamification’ in Medical Education (e.g. escape rooms). There will also be the potential to develop leadership and management skills within education.
The clinical commitment will ensure that the post holder maintains their clinical involvement throughout the year. This clinical component will include out of hours work, depending on the appointee’s clinical specialty and experience.
The post holder will have an opportunity to undertake relevant educational programmes. Time for such development will be agreed with the Director of Medical Education. The Trust will contribute financial support to the post-holder for an educational qualification, for example, the KCL PG Certificate.
