NHS Scotland is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce and eliminating unlawful discrimination. The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best. To this end, NHS Scotland welcomes applications from all sections of society.
NHS Education for Scotland is leading a programme, funded by Scottish Government, to support the professional development of Staff Grade, Associate Specialist and Specialty Doctors and Dentists, who form a significant part of the NHS Workforce. This development is supported by a dedicated SAS Professional Development Fund, to which SAS Doctors and Dentists can apply, beyond their contractual entitlement to study leave, to support access to significant training opportunities which will enhance delivery of clinical services and improve patient safety and care. The aims of the SAS Development Programme include supporting the aspirations of SAS Doctors who have not completed a CCT, but may be able to achieve entry onto the specialist register by completion of a Certificate of Eligibility for Specialist Registration (CESR).
The SAS Education Adviser will assume a key leadership role at local level, in conjunction with their local Director of Medical Education (DME), and will aim to support all substantive SAS grades employed in their territorial health board, to achieve their professional development aims.
NES is seeking to appoint an innovative and enthusiastic individual to work as a local SAS Education Adviser, as part of a national managed educational network, who will:
The successful candidate will be a qualified doctor or dentist and hold a substantive post in NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde, at SAS grade. Applicants are welcome to specify whether they wish to apply for a post of 0.5PA or 1PA; the SAS workstream will either appoint one candidate at 1PA or two candidates each undertaking 0.5PA. The total programmed activity allocation is a proportion of the overall SAS Education Adviser workload assigned to NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde by the SAS Education Adviser team, based on the headcount number of SAS doctors and dentists working in this Health Board region.
Applicants can apply to undertake the role in addition to existing PAs, or if the role is to replace existing PAs, the candidate must have the approval by the time of interview from their Clinical Director. While there can be flexibility in terms of when the PAs are worked, it is expected that this work will be predominantly carried out within office hours, Monday – Friday.
