Clinical Academic Jobs
The Dental Schools Council hosts a recruitment website to help you find clinical academic jobs. Visitors to the Clinical Academic Jobs website can search, free of charge, through a database of clinical academic job vacancies, and teaching and research opportunities across the UK.
The Dental Schools Council is committed to encouraging the development of clinical academic careers, by working with other interested parties and by supporting Dental Schools in the recruitment and promotion of clinical academic jobs. The Medical Schools Council and the Dental Schools Council jointly manage this website with the full support of UK Medical and Dental Schools.
Current opportunities include:
- Clinical Lecturer in General Dentistry, Peninsula Dental School
- Clinical Lecturer/Clinical Senior Lecturer in Primary Dental Care, Peninsula Dental School

The Clinical Senior Lectureship Awards
The Clinical Senior Lectureship Awards are supported by the UK Clinical Research Collaboration (UKCRC), as part of its commitment to building an expert research workforce to support clinical research and education in the context of established clinical training pathways.
These awards are designed for fully qualified clinicians in all medical specialisms, including primary care and dentistry. Successful candidates will have an established personal research portfolio and will hold posts in a combined clinical, research and teaching role jointly funded by a University and an NHS trust (or exceptionally other bodies, in the case of General Practitioners and General Dental Practitioners).
