King's College Hospital offers an opportunity for passionate and dedicated midwives to join our vibrant community teams on the PRUH site.

You will have the opportunity to work in a variety of working patterns.

We are recruiting midwives with at least one year's experience to join the traditional community teams.

The community teams are based at Orpington Hospital, Queen Mary's, Sidcup and Beckenham Beacon, with clinics in GP surgeries and children's centres too.

We provide antenatal and postnatal care for women and birthing people living in the London Boroughs of Bromley and Bexley.

We welcome full and part time staff with the flexibility of working compressed hours if you wish.

The position entails covering bookings, antenatal clinics and postnatal visits.

Midwives also form part of an on-call rota (long days and nights) for intrapartum care where you will gain experience in homebirths.
