About the work
The post is based on the Cambridge Biomedical Campus and combines high-quality research with an outstanding academic and clinical environment. A clinical lectureship is the standard route for a doctor who wants to build a research career without leaving clinical practice.
The clinical requirements are specific and worth reading before you apply. Applicants must be medically qualified, hold full GMC registration, and demonstrate clinical competence for the award of a National Training Number in Gastroenterology.
If you do not already hold a National Training Number, you will need to clinically benchmark before taking up the post. Benchmarking is achieved by applying for specialty training within the national recruitment window and achieving at least the minimum appointable score. Submitting that clinical application in the right recruitment round is the candidate’s responsibility.
What you need
- Medical qualification and full GMC registration
- Clinical competence for the award of an NTN or NTN(A) in Gastroenterology, or a route to benchmarking
- Read the official advertisement for the full person specification
Pay
The advertised range is £67,325 to £77,348 a year. This is a fixed-term post.

How to prepare for this application
- The benchmarking rule catches people out. Without an NTN you must apply through national recruitment in the right round, and that is on you.
- UK registration is required. This post is not open to doctors without full GMC registration.
- Quote the reference, RC51286. Cambridge asks for it on the form and in every email about the post.
- Check your right to work in the UK. Every Cambridge advert carries this condition, and it is the usual reason an overseas application stalls.
