Prif ddyletswyddau'r swydd
As part of our commitment to the ongoing professional development of midwives, we are excited to offer this exceptional opportunity for enthusiastic and experienced midwives to enhance their leadership and organisational skills as Band 7 Birth Environment Coordinators.
We are looking to recruit coordinators across both intrapartum pathways, our obstetric-led labour ward and our midwifery-led alongside birth centre, with training provided for each area.
If you have a keen interest in either of these areas, we would love to hear from you.
Gweithio i'n sefydliad
University Hospital Southampton is one of England's largest acute teaching Trusts, offering a wide range of learning and development opportunities to support your career aspirations.
Located on the south coast with an international airport and direct rail links to London, Southampton offers an ideal setting to live and work, with the New Forest, South Downs and Jurassic Coast.
We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalising your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial. Relying too heavily on generic, AI-generated content instead of drawing from your own strengths and accomplishments may lead to your application being rejected if multiple candidates present identical or similar information.
At UHS, we’re committed to providing a flexible working environment where possible. Whether you are balancing family, study, or your wellbeing with your career, we want to support you so you can help our patients.
At UHS, we proudly champion individuality, recognising that outstanding care is only possible with a diverse, inclusive team. We’re committed to creating an anti-racist, anti-discriminatory environment where everyone feels valued, safe, and empowered to make a meaningful impact in our communities. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences to join us in building a healthcare community where everyone can belong, thrive, and contribute.
