London, United Kingdom University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Full time

The Maternity Services at UCLH are looking for a dynamic and highly motivated Infant Feeding Midwife Coordinator to join our team of specialist midwives.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced midwife that would like to specialise in infant feeding with an interest to develop their skills in managing a team and developing a service further. Our current experienced team of infant feeding support workers and postnatal midwives will be an excellent supporting team to welcome someone new in this speciality.

This is a permanent 37.5h per week (1 WTE) B7 position.

The Infant Feeding Midwife Coordinator will be an enthusiastic member of the multidisciplinary team within the Maternity Service and will be expected to facilitate and provide individualised infant feeding support to women and their families.

You will lead on the strategic planning, implementation, and achievement of UNICEF BFI standards across the maternity services at University College London Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.

You will be responsible for delivering infant feeding training to staff on a regular basis. The writing and implementation of policies and guidelines around infant feeding, the day to day running of the infant feeding support service based on the postnatal ward, and the specialist infant feeding service including the tongue tie service will all be part of your responsibilities.

You will be involved in audit and data collection to roll out best practice standards across the maternity unit.

You will be the designated lead for the development of guidelines and policy on infant feeding and will be able to provide expert knowledge and advice whilst being a role model in ensuring that women/birthing people are fully supported in their feeding method choices.

You may be asked to be clinical if service needs require it.

You will be accountable to the Consultant Midwife in Public Health.
