Are you a passionate Midwife looking to make a real difference in your community? We are excited to offer an opportunity for a Midwife to join our traditional community midwifery team at Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, covering the Mansfield, Sherwood, Ashfield, or Newark areas.

This is a dynamic and rewarding role that offers a diverse working pattern, including on-call night shifts, to ensure we meet the needs of the women and families in our care. You will be part of a supportive and forward-thinking team, delivering evidence-based, woman-centred care across a variety of models, including home visits, clinics, and birth settings.

You will be responsible for providing total midwifery care for both high and low-risk women in the community, offering expert supervision, care, and advice throughout the pregnancy journey. The role also involves effective communication and collaboration with acute maternity services and wider multidisciplinary teams to ensure seamless, high-quality care.

We are looking for a professional, reliable and compassionate midwife with excellent communication skills and a commitment to continuous improvement through evidence-based practice. If you are ready to take the next step in your midwifery career and make a meaningful impact in your community, we would love to hear from you.

We are an award-winning NHS Foundation Trust working alongside health and social care colleagues across the county to provide acute and community healthcare services to more than 420,000 people across Mansfield, Ashfield, Newark and Sherwood, and parts of Derbyshire and Lincolnshire.

We put the patient at the heart of everything that we do and it is our aim to make sure that every patient is treated as we would want a member of our own family to be treated. At the same time, we expect our staff to be caring, kind and courteous to each other and to look out for each other. We believe that we are truly a clinically-led organisation.

We are proud that our Trust colleagues have voted us the best acute Trust to work for in the East Midlands for seven years running in the National NHS Staff Survey, while the Care Quality Commission has rated our Trust as 'outstanding' for care and our King's Mill Hospital as the only 'outstanding' NHS-run hospital in the East Midlands.
