Faculty / Directorate

Home to four specialist schools: Leicester School of Allied Health Sciences, Applied Social Sciences, Nursing and Midwifery, and the Leicester School of Pharmacy, the Faculty educates and develops professionals who make a significant difference to lives, health, wellbeing, communities and society. The Leicester School of Pharmacy has three UG programmes, including the highly regarded MPharm.

Teaching reflects the latest developments in the sector and many courses have professional accreditations. A range of work experience and volunteering opportunities enable students to develop the skills required by graduate employers. Recent graduates have secured roles with leading employers such as AstraZeneca, the Ministry of Defence and the NHS.

Role

The Leicester School of Pharmacy has an excellent reputation for the delivery of both undergraduate and postgraduate courses. The School invites applications from highly motivated individuals to teach clinical pharmacy and pharmacy practice, and to provide academic leadership. You will be expected to make a full contribution to teaching, predominantly on the independent prescribing programme, but also to a lesser extent on our other postgraduate and undergraduate programmes. You will join an enthusiastic team working in modern teaching and research facilities. Applicants interested in part-time work or a job share will be considered but our preference is for the successful candidate to work with us four days a week.

Ideal Candidate

You should have a degree in pharmacy, hold a relevant postgraduate clinical qualification and be an independent prescriber. You should have experience of teaching but that may be in an educational or clinical setting. We also place high value on contributions to academic citizenship activity in the School.
