Lecturer Nursing Apprenticeships Programme (Mental Health)

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic Mental Health nurse to join the University of Cumbria in the teaching and delivery of the Registered Nurse Degree Apprenticeship Programme. You will also contribute to the FdSc Nursing Associate Apprenticeship. 

The programmes are delivered using a blended approach with a mix of innovative online and work-based teaching and assessment methods. Effective links with practice will be maintained through undertaking tripartite reviews for apprentices on the programme and their employers. 

You will have a passion for developing and supporting others and will gain experience of high-quality teaching delivery and innovative assessment. You will bring contemporary nursing knowledge skills from practice, which will be developed within a higher education institute. 

Working in partnership with NHS trusts and private provider partners, service users and carers; our Institute of Health provides initial pre-registration education and a range of post registration education for a broad range of health care professionals.  Our aim is to support the skills requirements of the region, by attracting and retaining health professionals who will provide high quality, evidence-based care in a time of change in health and social care. 

We are seeking innovative, creative, high quality researchers, and scholars to foster a culture of exploration, discovery and intellectual challenge that generates international recognition, respect and engagement.

We would welcome applications from anyone considering flexible employment opportunities, including part time hours, job shares and secondments.

In return, the University offers an attractive benefits package including 35 days' annual leave plus bank holidays, 25 research and scholarly activity days, support for professional development, support to achieve Higher Education Academy/Advance HE accreditation, mentor provision in the first year of employment and opportunity for career development.
