Job descriptionAbout The Team: School of Veterinary Medicine - the first new School of Veterinary Medicine in Scotland for 150 years.
Scotland's Rural College (SRUC) has developed an innovative new School of Veterinary Medicine. We have a clear ambition to 'promote the resilience of our graduates to sustainably support the animals and rural communities at the heart of Scotland's Natural Economy'.
Wayne Powell, SRUC Principal and CEO: 'We are an ambitious institution with a bold vision for the future. This is a ground-breaking model to expand access to educational opportunities and broaden the range of potential students who would not ordinarily be able to attend a School of Veterinary Medicine. It will also help solve existing skills shortages across Scotland'.
The Opportunity: We are seeking a highly motivated, experienced RCVS registered veterinary surgeon to provide excellence in teaching and research. The role involves teaching the BVSci programme and allied health programmes, delivering lectures, tutorials, workshops and practical classes. The successful candidate must have extensive knowledge of anatomic pathology to support veterinary science teaching.
Candidates should have experience of postmortem and biopsy diagnostic service workload from a variety of companion and production animal species. The role also requires scholarly activity and stakeholder engagement evidenced through impactful publications and other outputs.
Minimum Qualifications: RCVS accredited Degree in veterinary medicine (SCQF level 12) and postgraduate experience in Anatomic Pathology.
Eligibility for Sponsorship: This role may be eligible for sponsorship depending on candidate circumstances.
