If you are passionate about Nursing, Social Work and Education and would like to make a difference to patient and client care, then the Department of Nursing and Midwifery would love to hear from you.

In one of the largest providers of nurse education in the UK, you will be working with a large, vibrant community of academics, practitioners and researchers with a commitment to providing high quality, research informed teaching, to ensure active learning.

You will need:

• The ability to design and deliver transformative and innovative learning experiences.
• Knowledge and understanding of critical, practical and theoretical issues relevant to learning disabilities nursing and social work
• Experience of teaching or supervising undergraduate and postgraduate nursing and social work or other healthcare professionals in a practice or academic environment.
• Current NMC registration (Learning Disabilities field)

Desirable:

• Current SWE registration (Social Work) or will be able to re-register within 6 /12months of taking up the post.

You will join a team of academic practitioners, teaching and supporting students in the college across the undergraduate and postgraduate curricula, with a key focus of teaching on the joint nursing and social work course.  You will also support a range of post-registration teaching to nursing and social work registrants accessing our extensive CPD portfolio, alongside opportunities to be involved in research and project work.

This is an excellent opportunity to further your career in a higher education setting. We offer a diverse range of benefits and opportunities to pursue a rewarding and fulfilling career in a supportive environment. As well as 35 days annual leave and the eight standard UK bank holidays, you also get up to six extra days each year for extended University closure around some UK public/holidays.

For this job we particularly welcome applications from minority ethnic applicants and male candidates who are underrepresented in this area at Sheffield Hallam. We also welcome applications for job-share, part-time and flexible working arrangements.

The University may be able to sponsor the employment of international applicants in this role; this will depend on a number of factors specific to the individual applicant.

Please note in addition to this Grade 8 role, there is also currently a Grade 7 Lecturer vacancy in Learning Disabilities Nursing and Social Work.
