Location: Bangor

Salary: £38,249 to £66,537 p.a.

Hours: Full Time

Contract Type: Permanent

Placed On: 10th November 2025

Closes: 1st December 2025

Job Ref: BU03764

Grade 7: £38,249 - £45,413 p.a. OR Grade 8: £46,735 - £55,755 p.a. OR Grade 9: £57,422 - £66,537 p.a.

As part of our commitment to the continued expansion of pharmacy and medicine at Bangor University, the newly formed North Wales Medical School seeks to appoint a Lecturer or Senior Lecturer in Pharmacy Practice/Clinical Pharmacy to contribute to the development of our MPharm degree programme, due to launch in September 2025. This post is advertised through either a Teaching-focussed (T&S) or Research-focussed (T&R) route and dependent on experience and potential, the successful applicant may be appointed as either a Lecturer or Senior Lecturer.

We aim to provide significant experiential teaching and part of your role will be to develop placement activities with partners including the Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board and Health Education and Improvement Wales. Whilst expertise in any aspect of pharmacy practice or clinical pharmacy is welcomed, additional experience of independent prescribing (practice or teaching) would be desirable.

Working with the Professional Body (GPhC) on curriculum development or programme recognition is also particularly desirable. Research opportunities within the developing NWMS currently focus around medicines use and optimisation, personalised medicines, pharmaceutical economics, policy and prescribing.

The successful candidate will be registered with the GPhC and have experience in UK pharmacy practice either through practicing as a pharmacist within a healthcare setting or else through extensive academic experience within pharmacy.

The post is full-time and permanent, and the successful candidate will be expected to commence as soon as practical. Applications will also be considered from those who wish to carry out this role on a part-time or job-share basis. At the point of application, applicants should indicate whether they are applying via the T&R (research-focused) or T&S (teaching-focused) route.

This role will be located on campus at Bangor. Through our Dynamic Working framework, there will also be the option to spend some time working remotely (although remaining in the UK) to support work life balance, which will be discussed further with candidates at interview.

Applications will also be considered to carry out this role on a part-time or job share basis.

Opportunities may exist for successful candidates to undertake clinical practice within particular areas and this can be discussed at interview or through informal discussion beforehand.

Please click 'Apply’ button above to be redirected to our application page. However, in cases of access issues due to disability, paper application forms are available by telephoning 01248 383865.

Interested applicants are invited to contact Professor Stephen Doughty, Professor of Pharmacy and Head of North Wales Medical School for an informal conversation prior to submission of an application, using e-mail s.doughty@bangor.ac.uk.

Closing date for applications: 1st December 2025

Interviews for this position are to be held as soon as possible following the closing date.
