About the Role:
As a Senior Lecturer in Pharmacy, you will collaborate with colleagues across the School of Medicine to design and develop a new MPharm programme. You will play a key role in delivering high-quality teaching to students once the programme is established. Responsibilities will also include module leadership and providing dedicated personal tutoring support.
The right individual will have a Degree in Pharmacy ie MPharm or equivalent PhD or Professional Doctorate Registration with the General Pharmaceutical Council. We are seeking a GPhC registered pharmacist with experience of education and training ideally within academia but also from the practice environment.
