**About the role**:
The Stoneygate Centre for Empathic Healthcare is a new, dynamic and impactful team directed by Professor Jeremy Howick and embedded within the Leicester Medical School. The Centre team is expanding to include additional academics and researchers.

A core aim of the Centre is to align with the University of Leicester’s strategic theme of delivering research-inspired education. The Centre has a mission to provide the NHS with the most empathic, compassionate and resilient healthcare practitioners possible, through the development of an evidence-based longitudinal empathy curriculum.

In this exciting new position you will take a leadership role to research, develop, deliver and evaluate a trailblazing wellbeing and resilience (“self-empathy”) curriculum for medical and healthcare students.

**About you**:
You will need to build strong collaborative relationships and work alongside colleagues within the Medical School, School of Healthcare and other relevant partners, playing a key role in the Centre's continued success and future ambitions.

For more information on the role and its responsibilities please see the Job Summary.

**Additional information**:
Interviews are likely to take place on Tuesday 20th June.

As part of the University’s ongoing commitment to professional development, this role will also be considered on a seconded basis for existing staff members. Please ensure this is discussed with your line manager prior to applying. More information regarding secondments can be found here.

The University of Leicester has been changing the world, and changing people’s lives, for 100 years. When you join us, you’ll become part of a community of Citizens of Change, which includes not only our staff and our current students but also thousands of Leicester graduates around the world.

As a diverse and forward-thinking employer, we embed the principles of equality, diversity and inclusion into everything we do. That includes not just our core missions of teaching and research, but also our support for staff, students and our local community through our values of Inspiring, Impactful and Inclusive.

We’re committed to the wellbeing of all our staff and to the sustainability of our environment, on our campus and beyond. We offer a competitive salary package, excellent pension scheme and a generous annual leave allowance, along with opportunities to develop your career in a supportive and collaborative environment.
