The RCSEd Faculty of Dental Surgery is inviting applications for the post of Convener of the Dental Examinations Committee. The post will become vacant in January 2022, when the current Convener, Dr Ian Corbett, completes his term of office.
Applicants must be Fellows of the College in good standing. The Convener will be appointed for an initial term of three years and the appointee will become an ex officio member of Dental Council. It is anticipated that the time commitment will average at least one day per week, with the post holder attending key Faculty of Dental Surgery committees and meetings in the College, and also working remotely from their existing base. It is essential that the appointee is able to work directly with the Dean of the Dental Faculty, the Dental Executive, and other key members of staff within the College. For this reason, it is likely that the appointee will be required to travel to Edinburgh on occasion. The individual appointed to the role will shadow the incumbent Convener for a period of up to three months, with attendance at least one meeting of Dental Council.
The closing date for applications is 15:00 on Monday 21 June 2021. All enquiries and applications should be sent via email to dental@rcsed.ac.uk.
The appointment will be made following an interview process and the subsequent approval of Dental Council.
