IPE Project Manager

The University of Reading (UoR) and Royal Berkshire Foundation Trust (RBFT) have recently developed a shared clinical simulation teaching facility. We would like to build on this and create a suite of interprofessional education (IPE) training activities where both institutions work together to use the new teaching facility to enhance learning opportunities for students and health professionals.

This exciting opportunity is a part time role (0.5 FTE) for up to 12 months and the position holder will be responsible for managing a project that brings together trainers across both institutions to identify training need and develop IPE courses that meet the training needs of medical and non-medical healthcare professionals.

You will have:

1. Excellent communication and evaluative skills to coordinate findings from focus groups and identify IPE needs of healthcare professionals and students within the two institutions.
2. Strong organisational and time-management skills to keep to project timelines required to deliver the project objectives.
3. The ability to influence and support others working within a multidisciplinary team.
4. Experience working within a healthcare setting and/or managing a project within an educational setting
5. Leadership skills that enable you to manage and coordinate teams engaging in IPE course development and delivery
