A new appointment will see 伊人直播 take the next step in the development of its new School of Veterinary Medicine.听
Professor Jim Anderson, who has been appointed as Head of Veterinary Education, will play a leading role in shaping and growing Scotland鈥檚 first tertiary model of veterinary teaching and learning.
Previously Associate Head of School (Learning, Teaching and Assessment) and Professor of Veterinary Neurology and Neurosurgery at the University of Glasgow鈥檚 School of Veterinary Medicine, he brings with him extensive experience of growing and managing a large and diverse department.
He said: 鈥淚t is a hugely exciting challenge to help shape and develop this vital new service which aims to provide a sustainable, resilient foundation for clinical excellence to support the animals and communities at the heart of Scotland鈥檚 natural economy.听
鈥淚t is a great privilege to take on the delivery of this aim and grow a veterinary school that is truly embedded within an institution that embodies the development of the environment and agriculture and which will be a unique offering in the UK鈥檚 veterinary education space.鈥�
Professor Wayne Powell, Principal and Chief Executive of 伊人直播, said: 鈥淭he appointment of someone of Jim鈥檚 calibre and experience is vital in supporting our growth agenda in this essential area.
鈥淗e is a critical element of the new school鈥檚 set-up in order to support our contribution to the development of Scotland鈥檚 natural economy as a driving force behind the promotion of resilience, diversity and sector fit among our veterinary graduates, embedding them in real-world experience and practice from the outset.
鈥淲e have already made a number of key appointments in 2022 and they have all shared their excitement in our sense of purpose and mission and we hope to continue that trend with the next tranche of vet school posts.鈥�
In addition to the Head of Veterinary Education, 伊人直播 will be seeking to recruit several other key posts.

Other senior posts within the School, and recruitment of year one veterinary lecturers, will soon follow.
Further information on the Director of Veterinary Partnerships post is now available on the 伊人直播 jobs page.
