About the role:

The University of Lancashire and the American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine (AUC) have partnered to address the global doctor shortage through delivery of a new accredited medical qualification, the Doctor of Medicine (MD) programme. Building on a collaboration that began in 2017, the two institutions now offer a pathway starting with a two-year Postgraduate Diploma in International Medical Sciences (PGDip IMS) studied in the UK at University of Lancashire, followed by a further two years study to complete the U.S.-accredited MD degree with AUC while in clinical sites in the US or UK.

The purpose of this role is to support the PGDip International Medical Sciences/MD (AUC) programme through high‑quality teaching in Anatomy, effective academic support of students, and active contribution to curriculum development and student experience. You will be expected to collaborate closely with colleagues across UK and Sint Maarten campuses.

The successful candidate will have strong higher‑education teaching experience in Anatomy, with a proven ability to deliver engaging learning, support students effectively, and work confidently within a defined curriculum such as USMLE‑aligned programmes.

Candidates should demonstrate initiative, excellent communication, and confidence in using digital learning platforms such as Microsoft tools and Blackboard.

You must hold an undergraduate degree (or equivalent) in a relevant subject along with a relevant postgraduate qualification.
