Clinical Teaching Fellow

These roles are replacement roles within the Academy of the Great Western Hospital with a focus on Undergraduate Medical Education. As a Trust, we place high importance on staff wellbeing. The Clinical Teaching Fellow role is intended as a fixed-term career development opportunity, normally taken for one year prior to specialty training. The posts are fixed term for 12 months as it is designed as a fellowship position rather than a permanent service role. The posts are suitable for doctors who wish to take time out before starting higher medical training or doctors who want to take a year out of a training programme (subject to agreement by the relevant training programme director) or for doctors interested in an academic career who wish to pursue a higher degree such as an MSc or doctorate (MD). These posts are made up of an educational role (80%) delivered in the academy as well as a supernumerary clinical component in the NHS Trust (20%). Or 50% clinical and 50% educational ward-based roles.
