ABOUT THE ROLE

Imperial College London and the University of Cumbria have entered into a partnership to form the Pears Cumbria School of Medicine (PCSM), based at the University of Cumbria at the Carlisle Fusehill street campus.
As Head of Quality, you will provide academic and clinical leadership to ensure the PCSM Quality Framework is fit for purpose and that the School adopts and promotes a culture of teaching excellence and inclusivity. You will work collaboratively with key stakeholders including students and staff in the School and associated NHS partners.

WHAT YOU WOULD BE DOING

• Using and triangulating a range of quality data, work with module leads and NHS partners to highlight areas of good practice and support them to address areas of concern.
• Have delegated responsibility from the Head of School for all General Medical Council (GMC) related quality assurance activities, including the coordination and preparation of the annual self-assessment questionnaire (SAQ) and related activities to demonstrate the School meets its obligations under GMC requirements.
• Lead the annual quality monitoring visit process to partner NHS organisations and support various initiatives to bring about identified and agreed improvements. Working with the PCSM Operations team and Trust staff (including clinical educators, the Trust Education Leads through to the Chief Executive) this will involve a coordinated series of visits to partner Trusts to collect data and develop action plans to be seen through to completion.
• Develop and implement effective mechanisms for student dialogue and collaboration and ensure there is appropriate communication of responses.
