We are expanding our Nursing academic provision within our new School of Nursing and Allied Health at the University of Chichester; this is an exciting opportunity to help grow and shape the future of the Nursing and Allied Health workforce in West Sussex. Our successful BSc (Hons) Adult Nursing course is already recognised by the NMC for academic quality, innovation and close partnerships to healthcare and wider sectors in which our graduates work.
This is a unique project lead role at Senior Lecturer level, the post holder will lead the curriculum design and become Programme Leader for a flexible health-related course that will offer an alternative degree route for those who wish to develop via a foundation year. This is an opportunity to expand and diversify routes into our health programmes here at the University. We offer fantastic new simulation-based learning facilities that include an immersive learning suite, virtual reality and robotics within our new dedicated building. Our mission is to provide outstanding education for the future Nursing and Allied Health Workforce in a face to face supportive and interprofessional community.
Ideally candidates will have knowledge, experience and skills within professional healthcare education, including curriculum development and partnership liaison experience. You will need to be a current registrant with the Nursing Midwifery Council or other relevant professional body, have demonstrable expertise in innovative, effective and inspirational teaching and learning for students, have a postgraduate qualification in teaching or be prepared to undertake one.
The successful candidate will need to be motivated, pro-active and engage with collaborative working both as a team and with wider partners. We aim to ensure that we equip our graduates with the skills necessary to succeed in the workplace upon graduation and throughout their professional careers. As such, we not only focus on the acquisition of caring science knowledge, but also on vital transferable skills such as compassionate leadership and robust digital skills.
