The School of Health and Social Care is looking for an enthusiastic and experienced Vascular Scientist to support the development of the BSc (Hons) Healthcare Science (Vascular Science) programme.

The innovative curricula have been co-produced and designed with key stakeholders to develop Practitioner Level Vascular Science roles of the future. This post offers an exciting opportunity for you to be involved in moving the School of Health and Social Care forward with its strategic plan to deliver a sustainable health and social care workforce for Gloucestershire and beyond in collaboration with strategic healthcare partners. 

The Vascular Science programme is the Universities second Healthcare Science development. Over the coming years, our vision is to expand our existing Healthcare Science programme portfolio with a view to build a community of courses that meets the growing Education and Training needs of the Healthcare Science workforce.

We would welcome applications from any Vascular Science specialist looking to further their careers with a move into an academic role and also existing academic staff with a proven track record of education within the Vascular Science specialty. 

If you have clinical experience in Vascular Science, and a proven interest in the delivery of high-quality education (at undergraduate/postgraduate level), we would be very keen to hear from you.

As an academic you will be expected to have a Post Graduate Certificate in Education.

There is a clear expectation that the post holder engages in the staff development programme provided.
