Following relocation back to the UK, Gill started a career in Higher Education, as a Physiology Lecturer, with a particular interest in the endocrine system and the nervous system. Following a period of time as an Enabling Tutor, working with students who are differently abled or who have additional educational requirements, across a large Faculty, she was promoted to Head of Biomedical Science. Her expertise in physiology, coupled with her experience in quality assurance, management, equality & diversity and teaching & learning, led her into Physician Associate education, and she moved to the University of Birmingham in 2020 to take up the role of Physician Associate Programme Lead. Alongside this, Gill has worked as Head of Education for Birmingham Medical School, whilst continuing to teach on the Medicine, Pharmacy and Biomedical Science programmes.
Gill has now taken on the role of Head of the Birmingham Medical School and College Lead for Post-graduate Taught Education. She holds a Fellowship of the Higher Education Academy and is a Fellow of the Institute for Biomedical Science.
