**Department**:
The Health Professions Education Unit (HPEU) at Hull York Medical School is advancing developments in health professions education and workforce research. HPEU brings together researchers and health professionals from a range of disciplines, from across the Medical School and our parent universities, as well as national and international collaborators.

We seek to raise the standard of medical and health professions education, research and training - ensuring that educators are inspiring the workforce of the future with the knowledge and skills needed to deliver brilliant healthcare. More broadly, our members are engaging in research addressing crucial workforce challenges in health services. Indeed, interventions relating to the clinical workforce are health technologies, influencing the quality of care and patient outcomes. Thus, such staffing issues are worthy of an evidence base, that is severely lacking.

**Role**:
The Health Professions Education Unit and Academy of Primary Care at Hull York Medical School are seeking to undertake educational research to explore the effectiveness, scalability and implementation of two types of current interventions being piloted within the GP sector run by Health Education England, Yorkshire and the Humber. This main purpose of this role is to support these projects.

**Skills, Experience & Qualification needed**:

- The applicant must have a first degree in a relevant area and PhD in Medical Education or equivalent experience.
- The applicant must have knowledge in the relevant field of a range of research techniques and methodologies.
- The applicant must have highly developed communication skills to engage effectively with a wide ranging audience, both orally and in writing, using a range of media.
- The applicant must have the ability to write up research work for publication in high profile journals and engage in public dissemination.
