Job responsibilities

I am the head of the Department of Clinical Medicine with responsibility for personnel, finances and resource allocation. The department has a complex structure with many employees who have tasks in both clinical work and in the research and education environments. 

My focus is to ensure a good framework for recruitment and career development and to ensure an inclusive and meaningful working environment. I work to promote collaboration and knowledge sharing internally at the department and with our most important partners, including especially the hospital managements in Region Midtjylland.
