Clinical Lecturer in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry

We have an exciting opportunity for a Clinical Lectureship in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry in the School of Health & Wellbeing. This is a fixed term (up to 6 years or up until six months after obtaining CCT, whichever is soonest). Suitable applicants will hold MRCPsych (UK)/or equivalent and will have completed general professional training in Psychiatry. The successful candidate will be appointed at the level of Specialist/Specialty Registrar and will enter the West of Scotland Higher Specialty Training Programme in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry.

You must already have a national training number at the time of taking up the post. While you may already hold a higher research degree (MD/PhD), a talented candidate may be appointed without this qualification. If you do not possess a higher degree, you will be supported in developing an appropriate project, pursuing any necessary funding and executing research suitable for submission of a post-graduate degree.

The post will be based within Mental Health and Wellbeing soon to be at the new Institute of Health and Wellbeing (IHW) building. For training and research purposes rotation to other clinical units or departments may be required.

Clinical training in psychiatry will be a major focus of the Lectureship in order to ensure you can successfully complete your CCT. The academic aim of the Lectureship would be to allow research development to support intermediate fellowship applications by the end of the lectureship and eventual growth to an independent academic career.
