About the position

Bond University Medical Program is seeking to recruit a medical specialist (GP or non-GP specialist) with a strong interest in working with a broad range of health and education disciplines in various community settings. The purpose of the position is to help expand and further develop clinical placements to allow students to engage with integrated placements outside the traditional hospital and general practice settings. Capstone Placements are provided to students in Australia and overseas to experience and understand healthcare in resource-constrained environments.

The Discipline Lead will contribute their knowledge, skills, and aptitudes to develop, refine and deliver curriculum and assessment relevant to these novel placements. They will be expected to work with clinicians within their discipline and with relevant interdisciplinary teams who supervise medical students on rotation across Bond’s clinical sites.

The Discipline Lead will provide input and support to those academics who provide teaching to prepare and educate students in years 1-3 about health systems and community-based health services in Australia and overseas. This may involve delivering lectures and working with relevant curriculum teams to ensure that this teaching meets Australian Medical Council standards. 

About the person:

The successful candidate will be a clinically active doctor with excellent leadership and communication skills, with the capacity to build relationships with a variety of clinicians and providers of community-based education.

A key strategy of the Medical Program is to further develop community and capstone placements in rural, remote, and Indigenous Health, therefore, experience working in these areas would be an advantage.
