Established in 1991, Queen’s School of Nursing & Midwifery provides a range of innovative programmes at undergraduate and postgraduate level, which prepare nurses, midwives and healthcare professionals for leadership roles in clinical care, teaching, management and research. With approximately 3,500 students, the School has one of the most extensive portfolios of programmes of any nursing and midwifery school in the UK or Ireland.
The overall vision of the School is to provide a learning community committed to excellence in teaching, research, scholarship and practice that contributes to local and global efforts to improve the health and wellbeing of society. In doing so, we seek to prepare internationally recognised graduates for roles that enhance the health and wellbeing of society and to demonstrate leadership in the advancement of the disciplines of nursing and midwifery.
In order to be the best, we strive to work with and attract the best talent to the University and due to continued growth, we currently have a number of Teaching Assistant posts within the School in the field of Adult Nursing.
This is a fantastic opportunity to be a key contributor, providing a high quality, exceptional and transformative educational experience to students in an innovative and high-tech learning environment.
Queen’s are committed to encouraging and fostering a gender balance within the University and the School are proud holders of a Silver Athena SWAN Award. We are committed to creating an environment in which everyone can reach their true potential and in which male and female have equality of opportunities for career development and learning. We actively encourage males to the nursing programme to dispel the view of nursing as a female profession and to increase the number of men in healthcare.
