Summary
We are recruiting for a Specialist Safeguarding Midwife who shares our vision to be trusted to provide consistently outstanding care and exemplary service to our patients.
A rare and exciting opportunity has arisen to join a dynamic safeguarding team, as a Band 7 Specialist Safeguarding Midwife.
The post holder will be a fundamental part of the safeguarding team and work closely with the Trust named midwife to ensure that the safeguarding remains at the heart of practice for women and UBB across the Trust.

Our Values are Include, Respect and Improve. It is important that you understand and refer to our values during your recruitment process and beyond!
The role of the safeguarding midwife includes supervision, training, education, managing and maintaining a very busy inbox, liaising with our multi-agency partners to ensure that robust plans are in place for our most vulnerable babies.
In addition attending a variety of Children's Social Care and Multi-disciplinary meetings (in person and virtual) and chairing meetings are a part of the role. As well as directly supporting women and midwives the role requires some auditing and data analysis.

Our ability to be flexible and innovative in the way in which we work and deliver our services to our catchment has never been more important than it is now.

• Mount Vernon Cancer Centre (MVCC), Northwood
We have ambitious plans to become an outstanding, patient-led Trust where dedicated staff provide high-quality, compassionate care to our patients. We continue to undergo significant transformation and our staff and patients are at the heart of delivering this ambitious agenda.
