Description

Job summary

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced, highly motivated and enthusiastic midwife to help lead the team on our labour ward.

You must be passionate about midwifery and committed to achieving the highest standards of midwifery care for both low risk women and those with more complex health needs. You must have excellent leadership qualities, be a good communicator and have the ability to challenge to ensure that women receive women centred individualised care.

We are a small and friendly unit at Airedale providing the highest standard of maternity care for approximately 2000 women. We support births at home, in our midwifery led rooms including 2 birthing pools and in our consultant led unit, all set in a picturesque semi-rural location.

Main duties of the job

The successful candidate will be responsible for the effective management of the labour ward over the 24-hour period; you will need to demonstrate clinical expertise and compassionate leadership to the midwifery team as well as work alongside members of the multi-disciplinary team. Being responsive to a dynamic environment is a key skill, supporting all staff to meet the needs of the service. The post holder will be responsible for the deployment and supervision of staff when required to meet the needs of the maternity service.

We are always looking for enterprising and innovative approaches to the way we provide our services.
