Specialist Midwife Safeguarding

6 months ago


Manchester, United Kingdom Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust Full time

The MFT Corporate Safeguarding team are looking for two registered midwives to join a fast paced and dynamic workplace where no two days are alike. Based in the antenatal clinic at St Mary's maternity hospital's Oxford Road Campus you will draw and build on your previous safeguarding knowledge and skills to ensure that the thousands of babies born at St Mary's and their mothers are effectively safeguarded at this vulnerable time of their lives. You will develop close working relationships with Safeguarding Midwives at the other hospital sites within MFT and across Greater Manchester. Over time you will develop training skills and participate in the delivery of Level 3 Safeguarding Training in collaboration with the wider trust safeguarding team. You will be fully supported to develop into the role so whilst previous experience working within a safeguarding team would be desirable, it is not essential.

Your day to day role will include providing advice to the ward midwives caring for inpatients and to Community Midwives encountering safeguarding concerns in community clinics and home settings.

You will maintain a visible presence in the clinical areas.

You will be responsible for ensuring that St Mary's staff are supported to represent the Trust at multi-agency meetings including strategy meetings, Initial Child Protection Case Conferences and Reviews. You will support St Mary's staff to fulfill their safeguarding duties and will give practical support to St Mary's when necessary to ensure there are no gaps in the provision.

MFT is one of the largest NHS Trust In England with a turnover of £2.6bn & is on a different scale than most other NHS Trusts. We’re creating an exceptional integrated health & social care system for the 1 million patients who rely on our services every year.

Bringing together 10 hospitals & community services from across Manchester, Trafford & beyond, we champion collaborative working & transformation, encouraging our 28,000 workforce to pursue their most ambitious goals. We set standards that other Trusts seek to emulate so you’ll benefit from a scale of opportunity that is nothing short of extraordinary.

We’ve also created a digitally enabled organisation to improve clinical quality, patient & staff experience, operational effectiveness & driving research, and innovation through the introduction of Hive; our Electronic Patient Record system which launched in September 2022.

We’re proud to be a major academic Research Centre & Education provider, providing you with a robust infrastructure to encourage and facilitate high-quality research programmes. What’s more, we’re excited to be embarking on our Green Plan which sets out how MFT continues to play its part in making healthcare more sustainable.

At MFT, we create and foster a culture of inclusion and belonging, provide equal opportunities for career development that are fair, open, and transparent, protecting your health and wellbeing and shaping the future of our organisation together.

Diversity Matters

We’re looking forward to hearing from you
