Senior Lecturer in Midwifery

Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU) is a distinctive, unique institution, rooted in the Liverpool City Region and with a global presence. Our students and staff, past, present, and future, are the beating heart of our city and can be found in every corner of every industry and community. We couldn’t exist anywhere else and have shaped the city in which we belong. Working with the people of Liverpool to improve lives and support communities is at the heart of why we were founded and why we exist today.

Our midwifery programme has been established at Liverpool John Moores University since 1991, being one of the first in the country to offer degree level study. The programme is UNICEF BFI gold accredited and is underpinned by a strong research and knowledge exchange ethos. We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic and committed individual to the position of Senior Lecturer in Midwifery to join our Midwifery team. You will lead on and deliver a range of high-quality teaching materials and associated student assessment activities, as well as making a significant contribution to the planning, design and development of modules, programmes, and curriculum changes. You will also engage in high-quality research and relevant professional and knowledge exchange activities as part of the School of Public and Allied Health’s continued development.

You must be a registered Midwife with the Nursing and Midwifery Council, educated to Masters level (or currently studying to) and have significant experience within midwifery including experience of supervising and teaching pre-registration midwifery students.

In return, we offer an excellent benefits package including generous annual leave entitlement, pension scheme, induction and development support as well as family-friendly policies.

This is an exciting time to join the university as we deliver the LJMU Strategy 2030 and its vision of LJMU as an inclusive civic university transforming lives and futures, by placing students at the heart of everything we do.

If you feel that this is the role you have been looking for and your skills and experience can make a real difference at LJMU, we look forward to hearing from you.
