Position Summary
The Department of Psychiatry at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Medicine is seeking a full-time, fixed-term faculty position at the master’s level to serve as a Clinical Instructor with the UNC Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) Team operating in Wake County.
ACT is an intensive, multi-disciplinary, community-based mental health service for adults with severe and persistent mental illness, with a particular focus on individuals with primary psychotic disorders. ACT targets individuals who have significant functional impairments, as well as complicating treatment factors that present barriers to participation in more traditional office-based services. The ACT Team provides crisis response services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, through an on-call crisis line. This position participates in the rotation of the ACT on-call phone.
Master’s level ACT clinicians are responsible for the coordination of ACT services for an assigned group of individuals served by the ACT Team, including the assessment, treatment planning, and implementation of evidence-based interventions, rehabilitation, and support services. Area(s) of focus will be based on clinician expertise and skill as well as the needs of the caseload, and could include evidence-based therapy appropriate for the population, integrated dual disorders treatment for co-occurring disorders, housing, employment, and psychiatric rehabilitation, among others. This position may participate in the supervision of trainees during rotations or placement with the ACT Team.
In addition to the duties listed above, this position may have additional supervisory and administrative responsibilities to function as the ACT Team Lead. These additional responsibilities, which will be outlined as a secondary appointment, are distinct from the Clinical Instructor appointment. These responsibilities include provision of clinical leadership for the ACT program in collaboration with the ACT Medical Director, provision of clinical and administrative supervision to staff, and oversight for the day-to-day operations of the team. They are responsible for ensuring that the team is providing the highest quality of care to service recipients and maximizing resources though attentiveness to authorization and billing practices. The Team Lead is a practicing clinician and provides direct services to individuals served by the ACT Team, including empirically based therapeutic modalities, psychoeducation and support for individuals’ family members, clinical assessments, crisis response services, and development and implementation of person-centered treatment plans. The Team Lead provides clinical back-up for on-call staff and will participate in the rotation of the on-call phone.

Mid Level Clinical Instructor Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a mid level clinical instructor job?
Position your application around ownership and outcomes: highlight courses you designed independently, clinical skills labs you led, or learner performance improvements you drove. Mid level roles reward candidates who demonstrate that they can operate without close supervision. Tailor your resume to show progression from following established curricula to shaping them, and emphasize any interdisciplinary collaboration or program assessment work you have led.
Which companies hire mid level clinical instructors?
Companies hiring mid level clinical instructors right now include UPMC, Park University, and NYU Langone Health, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. At this level, hiring tends to come from academic medical centers, regional hospital systems, nursing schools, and allied health programs that need instructors who can carry a full teaching load and contribute to curriculum review without heavy management oversight.
Are there remote mid level clinical instructor jobs?
Yes, though the role often requires some on-site clinical supervision depending on the program. About 0% of mid level clinical instructor openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with fully remote positions most common in didactic coursework, simulation debriefing, and online health sciences programs that do not require hands-on patient-facing instruction.
How do I move up to a mid level clinical instructor role?
The progression from entry level to mid level comes from accumulating independent ownership over time. Build depth by taking on curriculum design tasks, volunteering to lead skills labs, and seeking feedback from program directors after each teaching cycle. Demonstrating that you can assess learner competency, adjust instruction based on outcomes data, and mentor newer students or staff is what signals readiness for a mid level designation.
Which industries hire the most mid level clinical instructors?
Mid Level clinical instructor roles concentrate in Education and Healthcare & Medical Services, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive hiring because they operate accredited training programs, face ongoing workforce pipeline pressure, and need instructors who can step into established courses and improve them rather than simply deliver existing content.
