Clinical Lecturer in Paramedic Apprenticeships (LAS)

The London Ambulance Service (LAS), in conjunction with the University of Cumbria, are seeking applications for a 2-year fixed term secondment in the role of Clinical Lecturer. The successful post holder will work with the LAS academic team to deliver the University's BSc (Hons) in Paramedic Science to LAS members of staff who are undertaking the Paramedic Science Degree Apprenticeship.

Post holders will be supported to complete the first module of the postgraduate certificate in learning and teaching in higher education if this has not been achieved already. In addition, a bespoke induction programme will be available for new starters to support their transition into Higher Education.

Please be aware that the University is unable to appoint secondees holding skilled worker visas.

The University offers an attractive benefits package including:
- 35 days' annual leave plus bank holidays
