Anatomy Demonstrator

About Us

The Anatomy Department at King’s has a rich history, exceptional facilities, and world-class, progressive educators and researchers. Our expertise in topographical and clinical anatomy, education and science, cell & developmental biology, tissue engineering & imaging, fuel our modern, research-led education delivery. We are a collaborative multidisciplinary department working to understand the structure and function of the human body, from cells to organ systems, including development, ageing and evolution.  

Anatomy is a fundamental subject in the biomedical sciences that fosters creativity and curiosity. We are proud to use traditional dissection coupled with cutting-edge technology and imaging in our education practice, developing widely transferrable practical abilities, as well as skills in exploration and observation, documentation and communication. 

This post will be offered on a fixed-term contract for 9 months, from 1st September 2026 to 31st May 2027.

Further Information

At King’s, we believe that the diversity of our community and a culture that is welcoming, open, inclusive and collaborative, are great strengths of the university.

The Equality Act of 2010 protects the rights of our students and staff and provides a framework to fulfil our duties to eliminate unlawful discrimination, harassment and victimisation and in addition, to advance equality of opportunity and foster good relations between those who share a protected characteristic and those who do not. At times, this will include balancing rights and beliefs that can feel in tension.

We are committed to free speech and to academic freedom, believing that our foundational purpose as a university, is to create spaces where a wide range of ideas, including ideas that are controversial, can be discussed and debated, and where members of our community can express lawful views without fear of intimidation, harassment or discrimination.

When engaging in the robust exchange of ideas, we ask that our community is mindful of our Dignity at King’s guidance.

We ask all candidates to submit a copy of their CV, and a supporting statement, detailing how they meet the essential criteria listed in the person specification section of the job description.

We reserve the right to close adverts early due to the volume of applications we receive.
