Responsibilities: Support midwives in clinical practice, particularly those undertaking a preceptorship programme, to develop and maintain clinical practice, knowledge, and skills. Work clinically with those on a preceptorship programme (including newly qualified midwives, internationally educated midwives, and return to practice midwives) to assist them in developing their clinical skills and competencies throughout their preceptorship year. Coordinate with the preceptorship lead midwife and practice development midwives to regularly review the preceptorship programme, including planning and facilitating preceptorship training days and obstetric emergencies training. Coordinate with practice education fellows to support individual midwives through individual programmes that develop their knowledge and skills, producing a competent workforce. Promote good working relationships and collaborative working with the multi-disciplinary team both within the directorate and the rest of the Trust, as well as with the local education faculty.

We have a new way of working at East Kent Hospitals, called 'We care'. It's about empowering frontline staff to lead improvements day-to-day. We're looking for compassionate people to be part of our improvement journey for the patients, families, and carers we care for every day.
