Academic GP Advanced Fellowship Programme Lead

About the Role
Working closely with the North East London Integrated Care Board, the Academic GP Advanced Fellowship Programme Lead/s will lead the development and delivery of brand a new GP Fellowship Programme. The programme aims to recruit 20 GP Fellows into five-year fellowships to provide clinical services locally in areas with low GP numbers, while developing the Fellows’ research and quality improvement skills along an academic pathway. The programme will train GP Fellows in health data science, research methods, and the clinical effectiveness approach, to develop them into future leaders delivering clinical improvements in primary care across North East London.

The role is 0.5 FTE. We are open to a job share arrangement between 0.2 and 0.3 FTE postholders.

About You
The postholder/s will provide clinical and educational leadership to provide a personalised and unique programme for each GP Fellow as they develop their data skills, attend modules or complete our newly launched MSc Health Data in Practice, and develop fellowship applications to strengthen their academic GP career trajectories.

About the Institute
The Wolfson Institute of Population Health (WIPH) is an exciting and dynamic environment, home to 450 staff, 100 PhD students and 500 postgraduate taught students. It harnesses expertise across a wide range of population-based research and education activities and is an internationally recognised centre of excellence in population health, primary care and preventive medicine. The Institute is organised into six research centres which, though complementary and following the Institute’s strategic plan, also have Centre-specific objectives and requirements.

The postholder will be based in the Clinical Effectiveness Group (CEG) in the Centre for Primary Care. The CEG carries out research to improve population health, reduce health inequalities, and innovate, develop, and deliver quality improvement programmes using electronic health records from primary care, acute care and other settings.
