By joining the University of Lancashire, you’ll become part of a thriving community of talent that’s united by a shared vision – to transform the lives of our students and create prosperity and opportunity in the communities we serve. Every colleague has a vital role to play in helping us achieve this vision.
About the role:
The University of Lancashire is working with local partners to develop a modern, innovative veterinary programme, focused on producing clinically competent, compassionate, and pragmatic graduates. The School of Veterinary Medicine believes that everyone, regardless of background, should have an opportunity to turn their aspirations of a career in animal care into a reality.
This is a term-time only position, providing an excellent opportunity for professionals seeking a rewarding role with enhanced work–life balance. This post is ideally suited to individuals who are passionate about supporting the next generation of veterinary professionals while benefiting from the flexibility that aligns with the academic year.
The School of Veterinary Medicine delivers an innovative BVMS programme focused on developing clinically competent, compassionate and pragmatic veterinary graduates.
As a Veterinary Clinical Teaching Fellow in Pathology and Public Health, you will support practical teaching, assessment and student learning across pathology, diagnostic investigation, veterinary public health and related clinical skills, including laboratory, post-mortem, farm and external learning activities.
About you:
You will be an MRCVS, or eligible for RCVS registration, with relevant experience in veterinary farm practice and pathology, diagnostic laboratory work, veterinary public health, food safety, production animal practice or a related setting. You will have knowledge and practical experience relevant to pathology and public health, including diagnostic investigation, post-mortem examination, sample collection, food safety, biosecurity and relevant veterinary legislation. You will also be able to communicate complex clinical concepts clearly and support students from a diverse range of backgrounds in an inclusive and engaging learning environment.
Use of AI in applications: We want to understand your genuine interest in the role and artificial intelligence can be a useful tool to support your application. However, all examples and statements provided must be truthful, factually accurate and taken directly from your own experience and the written elements of your application should accurately reflect your own communication style. Applications that rely too heavily on AI tools can appear generic and lack the detail we need to assess your skills and experience.
We reserve the right to close this vacancy early if we receive sufficient applications for the role. Therefore, if you are interested, please submit your application as early as possible.
What we can offer you:
We have a fantastic package of rewards and lifestyle benefits – from an attractive annual leave entitlement to access to a comprehensive employee benefits platform which includes a 24/7 online GP.
Our people are our most important asset. We’ll encourage you to make the most of your talents and continually develop your skills and knowledge. As well as realising your career ambitions, you’ll be making a positive difference to other people’s lives.
