Description

The Institute of Medical and Biomedical Allied Education and the Centre for Allied Health (IMBAE) is the largest of the four St George's institutes and home to nearly 150 academic and professional services staff.

Our mission is high-quality medical, healthcare and science education that immerses students in research and practice and prepares them well for their future lives.

We have established relationships with educational leads at all our partner hospitals, and work with a wide range of professions in the community, including hospices, nurseries, refugee support services, voluntary organisations and other partners delivering teaching to our medical students.


The MBBS Quality and Partnerships Unit at St Georges is setting up a new Placements Allocations Team to strategically manage our clinical placement programme for medical students.

The team's objective is to streamline and strengthen the placement allocation process through enhanced coordination with partners and enhanced flexibility for student preferences.

We aim to strengthen our existing partnerships, working within the sustainable, mutually beneficial framework to provide exceptional learning opportunities for students while meeting the operational needs of providers.


The new Clinical Placements Allocations Team will play a vital role in overseeing placement logistics and allocations, nurturing provider relationships, gathering feedback, and identifying continuous improvement opportunities.

It will comprise five roles with dedicated tasks at varying levels of responsibility:


  • Clinical Placements Manager (SGUL 6)
  • Clinical Placement Coordinators x 2 (SGUL 5) (one for early clinical years and one for the final two years of the programme)
  • Clinical Placement Administrator x 1 (SGUL 4) (one already in post)


This advert relates to the appointment of two
Clinical Placements Coordinators who will coordinate the administrative support for all aspects of clinical and community placement allocations across the relevant student cohorts, using InPlace, the online placement allocation platform.

Each role will require developing appropriate administrative processes and communication channels to ensure the accuracy of student data across the students' journey through clinical placements.

Each postholder will also manage all student and partner communication related to clinical placements within their respective cohorts using a wide range of channels and platforms.

They will be based in the Quality and Partnerships Unit of the MBBS Programme Team closely working with colleagues across all years of the programme and across all partner sites (in primary and secondary care settings).


The key skills that will ensure success in these posts include confident use of IT tools, good grasp of data management, clear and concise communication and strong organisational skills.

Familiarity with educational software and experience of higher education environment is an advantage but not essential.

Each role would suit a self-starter who embraces change as an opportunity to grow and is ambitious to develop a professional career within the higher education sector.


Flexible working, including part-time or reduced hours of work, opportunities to work from home, compressed hours and local flexibility in agreeing start and finish times of work are among the extra benefits offered by St George's, University of London.
