Are you ready to join an enthusiastic and academically talented team? Do you have a passion for transformative approaches to student education? Are you enthusiastic about supporting the growth of a digitally ready, professional pharmacy workforce?

The School of Healthcare (SHC) provides undergraduate and postgraduate pre-registration education for nursing (adult, child and mental health), midwifery, social work and psychotherapy and counselling; postgraduate and professional development for pharmacists, advanced clinical practitioners, assessors in practice and other NHS workforce priority areas.  

Our applied health research has five themes that inform our curricula and educational provision: Long Term Conditions; Maternal Child and Family Health; Medicines Optimisation; Mental Health; People Systems and Services.  

The School of Healthcare’s overall aim is the creation, dissemination and application of knowledge to improve the health and wellbeing of communities, families and individuals by way of innovation in education, research and scholarship.

The Pharmacy team currently deliver a Postgraduate Programme in Pharmacy Practice, a General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) accredited multidisciplinary independent prescribing qualification, and educational supervision training for pharmacists. We also provide teaching and supervision on medicines management to a range of undergraduate and postgraduate healthcare professionals in the School of Healthcare and Faculty of Medicine and Health.

Our high-quality Medicines Optimisation research informs national and international policy and practice to ensure the safe and effective use of medicines. For example, our research into reducing medication errors and improving safety in care homes has had a significant impact on policy and practice.

As a Lecturer in Pharmacy you will have an MSc (PhD or equivalent is desirable), and experience in educational provision.  You will also be a registered pharmacist with the GPhC or be eligible for registration, have practice experience, and have a teaching qualification or be willing to undertake one when in post.
