Lecturer/Senior Lecturer in Advanced Clinical Practice

University of Brighton - School of Education, Sport and Health Sciences

Join Our Advanced Clinical Practice Team – Shape the Future of Advanced Clinical Practice Education.

Are you a passionate and experienced advanced practitioner? We are inviting you to bring your specialist expertise to our vibrant Advanced Clinical Practice team within the School of Education, Sport and Health Sciences.

We are looking for a Lecturer/Senior Lecturer with up-to-date, specialist knowledge in independent prescribing, physical assessment and advanced practice backed by experience as a senior clinical practitioner. If you are ready to share your insights and inspire others, we want to hear from you. In this pivotal role, you will teach and mentor students enrolled in our MSc Advanced Clinical Practice programmes. You will be at the heart of a dynamic, forward-thinking team committed to delivering exceptional education across our post-registration pathways.

Our curriculum is designed to empower practitioners to evolve their roles and innovate within their fields. We pride ourselves on a collaborative philosophy—working closely with students, academics, researchers, service users, and healthcare partners to deliver high-impact learning grounded in the latest research and clinical practice. To be successful in this role you should have:

• Registration with the NMC or HCPC
• A relevant degree in a nursing, midwifery or allied health profession and have a non-medical prescribing qualification and advanced physical assessment experience
• Professional experience as a senior clinical practitioner
• A higher education teaching qualification and/or an HEA Fellowship, or willingness to undertake this within the first 12 months
• Up-to-date, sound knowledge of current developments in health including current clinical, professional, and policy developments and the range of generic skills required to teach advanced practice
• Have knowledge/experience of HEE/NHSE Advanced Clinical Practice multi-professional competencies/frameworks
• Experience of leading and implementing creative approaches to develop teaching and learning of advanced practice related skills and knowledge in university and/or practice setting

An active research portfolio and publication record is desirable, but by no means essential for the right applicant. For full details of this role, please see the attached job description and person specification.

This is more than a teaching opportunity—it is a chance to influence the next generation of advanced clinical practitioners and you will play a key role in shaping curriculum, driving innovation, and fostering excellence in clinical education.
