Applications are invited from registered Medical Practitioners for two Clinical Teaching Fellow (CTF) posts, within the department of Department of Obstetrics and General Gynaecology in Gateshead Health NHS Foundation Trust. These are fixed term posts, for a period of 12 months, which will commence August 2026. Please note that this vacancy is only open to applicants with a minimum of 24 months NHS experience at time of start date.

The successful candidates will be key members of the undergraduate education team within the Reproductive Health Department, working alongside the Midwife Teaching Fellow and the Consultant Lead for Undergraduate Education, and therefore an ability to work in a multi-disciplinary team is a key requirement. The posts will involve preparing and delivering teaching for the Newcastle University undergraduate clinical teaching programme for year 3 and year 5 Medical Students. The CTFs will join the wider group of teaching fellows within the Trust in supporting the assessment and examination of students at certain points in the year and will be expected to be available for these specified dates.
On average, there will be 5 teaching sessions and 5 clinical/professional development sessions per week. The main clinical duties are to support a busy obstetric department (approximately 2000 deliveries per year) and to support in O&G surgical lists and outpatient clinics. Specialist clinics and training can be arranged according to career interests.
