BHRUT is looking to recruit an experienced and enthusiastic midwife to join our team as a band 7 senior Midwife Manager. If you are an NMC registered midwife who has an NMC PIN Number and would like to make a difference to women and their families, then we would like to hear from you. The post holder will continue to develop their leadership skills by enhancing both professional and personal development. By joining our team you will have the opportunity to bring your wealth of knowledge and experience to our maternity service and play a key role in supporting staff and improving care provided.
Main duties of the job
Working closely with the specialty Maternity Matron and Deputy Matron to manage the midwifery and nursing staff and resources within the ward/department areas to provide high quality and cost-effective clinical care. Working closely with the Lead Midwives to develop and promote Midwifery/clinical practice. He/she will set and monitor both clinical and non-clinical performance standards and to intervene to secure an immediate remedy where there is shortfall, in conjunction with obstetric colleagues. Our Senior Midwifery Manager posts at BHRUT are rotational.
About us
We're an organisation that is getting better and better. We were the most improved Trust in England for A& E performance in 2023/24 we're no longer in special measures and Matthew Trainer, our Chief Executive, has been named the top CEO by the Health Service Journal. Our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we're proud of and that our patients are happy with.
Many of our 8,000 staff - who come from 146 different countries - live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and the majority are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. More than 400 of them are on apprenticeship programmes and we're proud to be a London Living Wage employer.
We operate from two main sites - King George Hospital (KGH) in Goodmayes and Queen's Hospital in Romford. We have two of the busiest emergency departments in London - more than 300,000 people visited our A& Es in 2023.
Patients across north east London are benefitting from two new state of the art theatres at KGH and our Community Diagnostic Centres at Barking Community Hospital and St George's Health and Wellbeing Hub will significantly increase the number of scans that can be carried out.
We're looking forward to introducing an electronic patient record next year. This will mean the records of any patient visiting one of the seven hospitals run by BHRUT and Barts Health will be accessible to the clinical teams. It'll make things easier for staff and will be better for patients.
