Help us support the people who educate tomorrow's health professionals

The Association for the Study of Medical Education (ASME) is seeking an organised, enthusiastic and committed Administrator to join our small team in Edinburgh.

ASME brings together people involved in the study and practice of health professions education. Through our awards, mentoring, events, publications, membership, committees and wider activities, we support our community to share knowledge, develop their practice and contribute to the future of health professions education.

We're looking for someone who will enjoy playing a central role in making that work happen.

About the opportunity

This is much more than a general office administration role.

You will have responsibility for two important areas of ASME's work – Awards and Mentoring – while also becoming part of a team where everyone contributes to the successful delivery of our wider programme of activity.

You'll work closely with the Chief Officer and Directors of Awards, and Career Development and colleagues across the organisation, as well as communicating with members, volunteers, applicants, assessors, committees, training providers and other stakeholders.

Alongside your main responsibilities, you will have the opportunity to support colleagues across other areas of our work. This may include website updates, meetings, events, communications, membership administration and general office activities.

You'll therefore need to be someone who is happy to get involved, support colleagues and adapt when priorities change.

You will have:

·At least one year's previous experience in an administration role

You will also need to be able to travel occasionally within the UK, sometimes around 3–4 times per year.

What we can offer

You'll join a small team working to support a national and international community involved in health professions education.

The role offers:

·A permanent, full-time contract

·37.5 hours per week

·Salary of £26,227.50 per annum

·An Edinburgh-based workplace at EH4 5BP
