What is in it for you

Fellows will be recruited as a cohort beginning in August 2023 and will be supported to achieve their research and leadership ambitions through dedicated mentoring from academic leaders, peer support and a bespoke development programme aimed at providing the skills required for research and teaching leadership. In addition, Fellows will be awarded a start-up grant of £30K to establish their research.

Appointments will be open-ended and normally be made on the grade 8 academic scale (£43,414- £51,805), dependent on experience.
