An exciting opportunity exists for a committed, passionate and engaging Lecturer in Adult Nursing to join the Dame Ellen Musson Department of Adult Nursing at one of the country’s most vibrant Schools of Nursing & Midwifery.

You will be expected to participate in coordinating, delivering and assessing a level 6 (year 3) module focused on leadership skills development alongside supporting our students to successfully transition into registered nursing practice. As such we are looking for an individual who has a strong underpinning knowledge of a wide range of evidenced based leadership literature and theories and who can readily support students to develop key skills to enable them to lead in the delivery of safe and effective nursing care as a newly qualified practitioner.

You will additionally be expected to contribute to the design, delivery and assessment of taught content across the adult nursing pathway. We therefore are looking for a highly organised individual who can demonstrate creativity in their approach to designing learning activities.

Applicants must hold current registration with the NMC as a Registered Nurse (Part 1).

It is essential that applicants hold a first degree in a clinically relevant subject, and preferably a higher degree. They must be able to demonstrate on-going personal and professional development and appropriate study around evidenced based practice.

Company

At Birmingham City University, we’ve been engaged in teaching and learning since 1843. Our commitment to high-quality teaching, innovative practice and cutting-edge research ensures that Birmingham City University is a great place to study.

Our Faculty of Health, Education and Life Sciences is based just south of the city centre in Edgbaston. We have a wide range of courses in health and social care, education (teacher training and non-teacher training), life sciences, and sport, and our students benefit from practical learning facilities – from a mock operating theatre and hospital wards, digitally-enabled laboratories, sports clinics, and specialised teacher education facilities.

We have a national reputation of educating and training healthcare professionals through pioneering approaches to learning and teaching, through the creation of cutting-edge simulated experiences and have consistently achieved ‘excellent’ ratings in national quality audits. We’re also the largest trainer of undergraduate nurses in the UK, offering cutting-edge learning facilities including state-of-the-art lecture theatres and seminar rooms, mock wards, birthing rooms, operating theatres and virtual reality software. Our departments cover Adult Nursing, Mental Health and Learning Disabilities, Midwifery and Child Health.

We have recently invested in refurbishing our skills hub to further develop the hands-on, practical training we offer to students on nursing, midwifery and allied health professions courses. The £3.5million redevelopment includes:

• Refurbished operating theatre with new anaesthetic room.

• New post-operative recovery unit for both adult and paediatric simulation scenarios.

• New resuscitation suite with Brayden pro manikins.

• New labour and delivery suite with low-risk and high-risk zones for different types of birth.

As you would expect, our Nursing and Midwifery courses are accredited by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), ensuring you have the opportunity to go on to the Register for your profession at the end of your course.

We have strong links with NHS Trusts across Birmingham and Solihull and into the wider Midlands area, including Birmingham Women's and Children's NHS Foundation Trust (which covers one of only two specialist women’s hospitals in the UK) and Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, which is recognised as one of the leading NHS Trusts in the UK and includes the Queen Elizabeth Hospital. Training to be a health professional in Birmingham provides students with the opportunity to experience a wider range of clinical areas as well as engaging in service provision for a diverse cross-section of society.

We have a good history of engagement with overseas ministries, academic institutions and professional bodies to transform local healthcare and education practises. Activities include collaborative research and delivery, student progression and mobility of staff and students.
