• Own our proctor communications, including a regular newsletter, coordinating contributors and writing, editing and proofreading content.

• Work with subject matter experts to ensure all content is clinically and technically accurate before release.

Global collaboration & educational societies

• Support regional Professional Education teams with educational society courses and events, sharing resources and best practice across regions.
• Build a library of ready-to-use agendas, documents and materials so teams worldwide can deliver consistent, high-quality education.

External research collaboration

• Manage external research requests from clinicians and institutions, coordinating internal review and ensuring timely, well-governed responses.
• Project & stakeholder management
• Plan and prioritise multiple workstreams, maintain clear timelines and provide regular progress updates to the Head of Professional Education.
