An exciting opportunity has arisen for enthusiastic and motivated Midwives to become part of the Community Midwifery Team.

On occasions the post may also include working with colleagues within the other teams in the Inner Moray Firth area. The successful candidate will be flexible in their approach, be a good team player and have excellent time management skills. Community experience is desirable but not essential and is suitable for a Band 6 to apply. Full and part-time hours will be considered.

Dingwall is a great location if you enjoy both outdoor pursuits and culture & is located a short distance from the Airport where flights run regularly to London, Birmingham, Bristol and Ireland. We are also in the perfect place to access the beautiful Cairngorms National Park, tour around the North Coast 500 and visit some of the most beautiful white sandy beaches whilst doing an island hop to some of the neighbouring islands.

We provide a 7 - day midwifery service and there is an on-call commitment required for the provision of a Home Birth/Domino service within the community midwifery teams.

A full / current driving licence and use of own car with business insurance is essential for this post.

Full and part time hours will be considered.
