- Contributing to leadership in the School's implementation of the General Dental Council's Safe Practitioner learning outcomes.
- Contributing to and/or leading development of the School's strategies on digital dentistry and sustainability.
- Supporting the School's Strategic Leadership Team in decision-making in response to internal and external opportunities and challenges to ensure our educational provision remains student-focused, high quality, and financially sustainable.
- For appropriately qualified and experienced candidates, leading the School's developing interests in pedagogic research.
- Supporting junior colleagues in developing their careers in dental education, including through direct line management, and contributing towards strategic succession planning.
Bristol Dental School leads multi-disciplinary research in laboratory, clinical, and population sciences. The research groups and laboratories are based in Dorothy Hodgkin Building and the Dental School, facilitating close working relationships with clinical researchers and complementary research activity aligned to the Medical School, ensuring a key critical mass and world-leading research quality.
We have a successful strategy for developing the next generation of clinical academics through formal Integrated Academic & Clinical Training schemes, with researchers working across world-leading Dental and Medical research teams.
Bristol Dental School was the first UK Dental School to hold the Silver Award, and we are proud to continue to hold a Silver Athena Swan award highlighting its positive approach to equal opportunities.
We continue to make improvements to working culture and to foster collaboration and team working within our new Dental School. We are a welcoming and supportive community, and are undertaking further work to increase the inclusivity within our School through design of the new building, and other education-related activities such as our curriculum decolonisation project.
Additionally, we are developing a programme of in-house continuing professional development to support our teams to stay at the forefront of modern education and clinical practice.
