We particularly encourage interest from colleagues with backgrounds and/or experience in nursing, assistant practitioner, nursing associate, paramedic science, or related health professions.

Experience within higher education, practice education or workforce development will be highly valued. An up-to-date understanding of apprenticeship provision, professional standards, and the evolving health care landscape will be advantageous.
