Your experience spans a range of midwifery settings and models of care, with knowledge of budget management, financial planning and strategic development. We’ll expect you to be adept leading on clinical innovation, and support in shaping new roles and services. It’s your passion for the women and their families, collaborative spirit and excellent communication skills that really set you apart.
