Clinical Midwifery Educator

We have an exciting opportunity to appoint to a full time, permanent Clinical Midwifery Educator role. The successful candidate will support our preceptorship midwives during their transition period from newly qualified midwives to band 6 midwives.

The post holder will be required to act as a positive role model, working closely with the recruitment lead midwife, professional development lead midwife and the preceptorship midwives. The successful candidate will be required to work alongside the preceptorship midwives in all clinical areas, supporting them across a full range of shifts to consolidate their knowledge and clinical skills.

Applicants must be able to work flexibly in all clinical settings and possess all the skills required of a band 6 midwife, including a mentorship qualification.

You will work alongside the preceptorship midwives supporting them in clinical assessments, decision making skills, clinical skills such as cannulation, suturing, intravenous medication administration and emergency procedures.

You will be required to work flexibly to support the midwives and the needs of the service whilst enhancing the preceptorship support package in place, working in partnership with the LMNS and key organisational stakeholders.

As an organisation we believe in One Culture of Care and staff wellbeing is equally important to us. The successful candidate would be welcomed in to the team where you will be supported by the leadership team, clinical teams, our professional development lead midwife and our team of supportive Professional Midwifery Advocates.
