Saint Mary's Managed Clinical Service (MCS) are proud to be the largest maternity service in the country providing care for women across Greater Manchester, supporting around 17,500 births each year. Wherever your interests lie, we'll support you to develop your specialist skills to enable you to progress your career in midwifery.

Role and Responsibilities

For this role you will be driven to providing the best possible care and be passionate about midwifery and the importance of the services we provide. You will be focused, caring, and dedicated and will strive to work as part of an effective team. Using your well-honed leadership skills, you\'ll act as a support to the Ward Manager or Team Leader, deputise for them when necessary, and develop and maintain organisational and managerial skills relevant to the ward or department. Implementing the Trust\'s annual appraisal process will be another key duty, as will participating and leading in the Improving Quality Programme.

As a motivating and inspirational practice assessor, you\'ll be a resource for all our midwives, support staff and students, encouraging a high level of achievement in everyone you work with.

The maintenance of your own professional development will be key to your success, and you\'ll also help to promote awareness of current developments in midwifery, and look out for every opportunity to increase your own knowledge, skills and expertise.

Dedicated to providing an environment that encourages patient-centred involvement, you\'ll promote good working relationships with all the internal and external departments you work with, with the ultimate aim of providing the best patient journey possible.
