Head of School of Medicine Anglia Ruskin University

About Anglia Ruskin University:

Anglia Ruskin (ARU) is a vibrant, modern and ambitious University gaining prominence both nationally and internationally. Our campuses in the cities of Cambridge, Chelmsford and Peterborough have been transformed with major capital investment of over £122m. With an annual turnover of £200m, ARU is a major force for higher education in the East of England. We are proud of the lifelong relationships formed by those who work and study with us, and of the friendly atmosphere – which visitors quickly identify as unusual for such a large organisation. We were proud to be pronounced Entrepreneurial University of the Year 2014.

About the role:

We’ve commenced the process to develop an undergraduate medical course at our Chelmsford campus. We’re looking for a Head of School of Medicine, who’ll be responsible for leading this new development, in addition to providing strategic oversight to enhance and develop our existing postgraduate medical education and research activities. Working alongside key stakeholders at a local and national level you’ll manage the General Medical Council’s, “New Schools and Programme Application Process”.

In order to lead and develop this exciting initiative, you’ll need to have excellent organisational skills and the ability to work collaboratively across the Higher Education and health environment. You’ll be an ambitious and committed clinical academic leader with a track record of leading research and teaching.

You’ll hold a primary medical qualification, recognised by the GMC, and be a member or fellow of the appropriate Royal College. You’ll also be on the GMC Specialist Register and have full GMC registration with a licence to practice, and so you’ll be eligible to undertake clinical activities in one of our primary or secondary care partner organisations under an Honorary Clinical Contract.

For informal enquiries, please contact Dr Ruth Jackson, Pro Vice Chancellor in Medical School Development, and Director of the Postgraduate Medical Institute on ruth.jackson@anglia.ac.uk or 01245 684656

We value diversity at Anglia Ruskin University and welcome applications from all sections of the community.
