Clinical Lecturer in Infectious Diseases and General Internal Medicine

The University of Glasgow's School of Infection and Immunity is seeking to appoint a Clinical Lecturer in Infectious Diseases and General Internal Medicine. This Lectureship is fixed term (up to 6 years or up until six months after obtaining CCT, whichever is soonest).

If you think you are the right match for the following opportunity, apply after reading the complete description.You will hold MRCP or equivalent and have a national training number at the time of taking up the post. It is expected that you will already hold a higher research degree (MD/PhD), but in exceptional circumstances, a talented candidate may be appointed without this qualification, although progression would be dependent upon them successfully completing this qualification in the first years of the post. If you do not possess a higher degree, you will be supported in developing an appropriate project, pursuing any necessary funding, and executing research suitable for submission of a post-graduate degree.

The successful candidate will be appointed at the appropriate level of Specialty Trainee and will enter the West of Scotland Higher Training Programme in Infectious Diseases and General Internal Medicine. You must already have a national training number at the time of taking up the post.

The post will be based within the School of Infection and Immunity in the College of Medical, Veterinary and Life Sciences (MVLS) of the University of Glasgow. Whilst clinical training will be a major focus of the Lectureship to ensure the appointee can successfully complete their certificate of completion of training (CCT), this post will also provide an exceptional opportunity for combined academic training.

Clinical training will focus on Infectious Diseases and General Internal Medicine. It is anticipated that clinical training will take place at designated West of Scotland Centres.

Research training will be undertaken in the world-class academic environment of the University of Glasgow with excellent opportunities in Virology, Bacteriology, Immunobiology, and Parasitology.

For this Lectureship, the School is particularly keen to develop further capacity in our areas of internationally recognised research excellence, for example Mycobacteriology. However, applicants who have other research interests that are aligned with College and School strategy are still encouraged to apply.

We believe that we can only reach our full potential through the talents of all. Equality, diversity, and inclusion are at the heart of our values. Applications are particularly welcome from across our communities and in particular people from the Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) community, and other protected characteristics who are under-represented within the University.

We endorse the principles of Athena Swan and hold bronze, silver, and gold awards across the University.

We are investing in our organisation, and we will invest in you too.

Salary: £43,504 to £64,461 per annum.
