Job description
Job summary
The East of England Primary Care School (part of the Workforce, Training and Education Directorate of NHS England) are looking for enthusiastic and innovative educators to join the team as GP Training Programme Directors.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join NHSE and make an impact working with Resident Doctors in GP training. The successful applicant will be joining an existing team working on Simulation Enhanced Learning projects.

Main duties of the job
The team of GP Training Programme Directors for Simulation Enhanced Learning will work collaboratively to develop and promote the use of these resources across the East of England.

About us
NHS England has a wide range of statutory functions, responsibilities and regulatory powers. These are focused on supporting the wider NHS to deliver high quality care, as well as doing those things that are best done once for the whole NHS.

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

In March 2025, the Government announced that NHS England and the Department of Health and Social Care will increasingly merge functions, ultimately leading to NHS England being fully integrated into the department.

If you currently work within the NHS and 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 process.

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

We cannot offer visa sponsorship for any vacancies.
