Description

The role of Training Programme Director is to work with and support the Postgraduate Dean in leading the delivery of a wide range of functions within their specialty, aligned to the NHS England mandate.

Colleagues with a contractual office base are expected to spend, on average, at least 40% of their time working in-person.

The Clinical Pharmacology Training Programme Director (TPD) is a member of the Speciality Training Committee (STC) who is managerially responsible to the Postgraduate Dean for the delivery of training in that speciality according to the standards set by the GMC and the Royal College of Physicians.

The role includes recruitment and placement of trainees with Local Education Providers to ensure that their curriculum needs are met in a high quality learning environment, assessing the progress of trainees towards their curriculum requirements, organising a teaching and training programme to enhance curriculum delivery and supporting trainees in difficulty and providing career guidance.

The demands on TPDs are likely to vary at times and the guidance below should be interpreted flexibly.

Our work supports the NHS to deliver high quality services for patients and best value for taxpayers.

Our staff bring expertise across hundreds of specialisms — including clinical, operational, commissioning, technology, data science, cyber security, software engineering, education, and commercial — enabling us to design and deliver high-quality NHS services.

Earlier this year, the Government announced that NHS England will gradually merge with the Department of Health and Social Care, leading to full integration. The aim is to create a smaller, more strategic centre that reduces duplication and eliminates waste.

If successful at interview, we will initiate an Inter Authority Transfer (IAT) via the Electronic Staff Record (ESR). This retrieves key data from your current or previous NHS employer to support onboarding, including competency status, Continuous Service Dates (CSD), and annual leave entitlement. You may opt out at any stage of the recruitment process.
