Summary
Job overview – Simulation and Essential Clinical Skills Facilitator
Bart’s Health Simulation Team
Base: Newham Hospital – 9 months secondment to cover maternity leave
Band 7
37.5 hours worked over five days with no opportunity to work from home, this is a face to face role
The Simulation and Essential Clinical Skills service forms part of the Education Academy within Bart’s Health. It is responsible for providing facilities and educational opportunities for both undergraduate and post graduate trainees across Bart’s Health. This is a face-to-face role without provision to work from home. The post holder will be based in the Simulation Centre facility at Newham Hospital five days a week. They will be expected to work across other sites as and when required. The post holder will be responsible for delivering procedure based teaching alone and in partnership with specialists in the field.
We are currently looking to recruit a clinical skills tutor for 9 months secondment to cover maternity leave who will have the skills to maintain, set up, coordinate and deliver training using this equipment. They will also be expected to support clinicians in the delivery of the clinical skills teaching, including the wide library of haptic simulators available within this facility.
“Although this position is a 9 months fixed-term contract, the actual contract duration will be adjusted to account for the time taken to advertise the post, complete the hiring process, and finalise pre-employment checks. This means the contract will begin when the candidate starts the role and may be slightly shorter than 9 months.”
Barts Health is one of the largest NHS trusts in the country, and one of Britain’s leading healthcare providers.
The Barts Health group of NHS hospitals is entering an exciting new era on our improvement journey to becoming an outstanding organisation with a world-class clinical reputation. Having lifted ourselves out of special measures, we now have the impetus and breathing space to chart a fresh course in which we are continually striving to improve all our services for patients.
Our vision is to be a high-performing group of NHS hospitals, renowned for excellence and innovation, and providing safe and compassionate care to our patients in east London and beyond. That means being a provider of excellent patient safety, known for delivering consistently high standards of harm-free care and always caring for patients in the right place at the right time. It also means being an outstanding place to work, in which our WeCare values and behaviours are visible to all and guide us in how we work together.
We strive to live by our WeCare values and are committed to promoting inclusion, where every staff member has a sense of belonging. We value our differences and fully advocate, cultivate and support an inclusive working environment.
The post is suitable for a Registered Nurse /ODP/AHP with clinical experience, a proven interest in teaching and the ability to manage services. They need to be able to demonstrate an understanding of best practice and have the ability to access current guidance and research to ensure all teaching complies with this. The successful candidate will work closely as part of the wider Simulation and Essential Clinical skills team.
What we are looking for:
• A registered nurse/ODP/AHP
• Someone with a degree or equivalent
• Teaching experience
• Excellent communication and social skills
• Aptitude for learning
• Managerial skills
• Good IT skills
• Ability to work both within a team and independently
What we can offer:
• Extensive orientation and development programme which will include opportunity to shadow/teach with other tutors
• Time to ‘grow’ into the post
• Education and learning opportunities

• Protected clinical practice timeFor further information please contact:
