Teacher Practitioner (Simulation)

The School of Optometry and Vision Sciences seeks innovative optometrists to support high-quality teaching on undergraduate and postgraduate programmes/modules. We are particularly interested in candidates who are enthusiastic about supporting students to develop as autonomous, Master's-level practitioners, building on their work-based clinical learning, and who are committed to delivering an excellent, structured and supportive academic learning experience aligned with professional standards.

Cardiff University is committed to supporting and promoting equality and diversity and to creating an inclusive working environment. We believe this can be achieved through attracting, developing, and retaining a diverse range of staff from many different backgrounds. We therefore welcome applicants from all sections of the community regardless of sex, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, trans identity, relationship status, religion or belief, caring responsibilities, or age. We especially welcome and encourage applications from those from under-represented groups within the University workforce, such as those who identify as LGBT +, Ethnic Minority or those with disabilities. In supporting our employees to achieve a balance between their work and their personal lives, we will also consider proposals for flexible working or job share arrangements.
Applications may be submitted in Welsh, and an application submitted in Welsh will not be treated less favourably than an application submitted in English.
