Harnessing ambition, investment, commitment and the contribution of our people, our vision is to be the UK’s best integrated care provider. We’re already on our way to achieving this. We’ve trebled our training budget, enhanced the way we recognise our people and are constructing career pathway frameworks.

Ideally applicants must have prior experience within a maternity setting. There are many opportunities for career development such as apprenticeships and in house training. You will be exposed to a broad range of skills and training opportunities at the Trust and further progression can be discussed at your annual appraisal meetings with your Team Leader.
