The clinic operates as a student service, where podiatry students work alongside qualified clinicians and Academics to deliver care. You will play a pivotal role in integrating education, service delivery, and workforce development, ensuring a safe, effective, and inspiring clinical environment.

Working with the Strategic lead for the Health and Wellbeing Academy you will:

• Support, coach, and develop clinical staff and supervisors
• Drive service innovation to enhance access, experience, and outcomes
• Contribute to wider workforce transformation and placement expansion agendas

We are looking for a registered Podiatrist (HCPC), educated to degree level with significant post-registration clinical experience, including leadership or management responsibilities.

Demonstrating a strong commitment to education and workforce development you will possess excellent communication, partnership, and organisational skills and be passionate about delivering high-quality patient care.

We offer an excellent employment package including hybrid working, blending a mix of remote and on-campus working (dependent on work duties).
