Edinburgh, Edinburgh, United Kingdom The University of Edinburgh Full time
Job Opportunity: Senior Lecturer in Equine Sports Medicine

We are seeking an experienced equine clinician to join our clinical team and take a leading role in the provision and development of the sports medicine service provided by our equine hospital and practice.

The Opportunity

This is a unique opportunity to lead and grow the discipline of equine sports medicine within a top-ranking UK veterinary school. In conjunction with our talented and dedicated equine team, the post holder will work within a highly-equipped equine hospital where they will contribute to the continued development of our clinical caseload and take responsibility for cases at referral level.

The hospital has well-developed cardiology, respiratory, orthopaedic, diagnostic imaging and behavioural medicine services, with significant clinical and research expertise in each area. We are now in a position to recruit a dedicated person capable of driving an integrated "performance driven sports medicine" service.

Your Skills and Attributes
  • A Veterinary Degree registered with the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons as a practising member of the profession.
  • General equine sports medicine skills, with a particular focus on/interest in orthopaedics and diagnostic imaging.
  • Further specialist qualification, preferably ECVSMR/ACVSMR; however, ECVS/ACVS Diploma-holders with a demonstrable sports medicine interest are very much encouraged to apply.
  • Interest in fulfilling the remit of a clinical academic working within a veterinary school setting (i.e., engagement with teaching, learning and assessment).
  • Demonstrable commitment to develop their own, and contribute to the School's clinical research output.
  • Full valid UK driving licence, as there is a requirement to travel to the hospital out of hours to respond to emergency situations when public transport is unavailable.
What We Offer

We offer a competitive salary, a dynamic and supportive work environment, and opportunities for professional development and growth. The post holder will also have the opportunity to work in conjunction with our behavioural medicine team to develop a better understanding of the relationship between pain and behavioural changes with a view to collectively developing a more comprehensive and formulated approach to the investigation and management of such cases.

They will be involved in teaching and practical training of veterinary undergraduate students and postgraduate clinical scholars (residents) and will be encouraged to undertake clinical research in their field of expertise, thus enhancing the professional reputation of the equine service and contributing to the research output of the division and the school.

Collaborative research is encouraged and there is extensive opportunity for cross-campus collaboration. In addition, the post holder will assist with initiatives aimed at the promotion of equine welfare and will have the opportunity to contribute towards the efforts of the Division of General Practice in supporting the equine industry in remote and rural parts of Scotland.

There will also be the option to undertake racecourse veterinary duties at 2 of Scotland's racecourses as part of our existing team.
