• Teaching: Provide academic leadership for the delivery of clinical education at QEII Hospital, coordinate teaching and assessment activities across all four years of the Doctor of Medicine (MD) program, mentor and support students and clinical educators, foster a positive learning environment, contribute to curriculum development, and lead the coordination of clinical examinations and educational activities.

• Research: Contribute to the scholarship of teaching and learning, apply best-practice educational research methodologies, undertake independent and collaborative research projects, evaluate educational initiatives, and produce high-quality research outputs that advance medical education.

• Supervision and Researcher Development: Supervise and mentor medical students, trainees, and staff, support the development of clinical educators, recruit and mentor the UQ Academic Education Registrar, provide coaching and performance feedback, facilitate professional development opportunities, and contribute to the supervision of doctors in training programs.

• Citizenship and Service: Represent the Medical School within QEII Hospital and the broader health sector, strengthen partnerships between UQ and Metro South Health, contribute to School, Faculty and University committees and initiatives, support a respectful and inclusive learning environment, undertake administrative responsibilities, participate in professional development, and promote the PA-Southside Clinical Unit as a centre of excellence for teaching and learning.
