Join to apply for the Student Midwife (Shortened course) role at East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust
Are you an Adult Nurse who would like to become a midwife? Do you have at least 6 months post-registration experience as a nurse?
If the answer is ‘yes’ we would like to help you make the change through our BSc (Hons) Midwifery (shortened) programme. We work closely with the University of Suffolk to support your application to change career and we currently have vacancies for the September 2025 cohort.
The theoretical components of the course are led by the University of Suffolk in Ipswich. Teaching is provided via virtual classrooms and on-campus teaching and is organised into modules that are spread across the duration of the course. Practical placements are offered within the Trust and you will be placed in various clinical locations to enable you to meet the NMC practice requirements. Clinical placements will include a community midwifery placement, midwifery led birthing unit, labour suite, antenatal clinic, a health visitor placement and neonatal unit placement. During these placements you will be supported by a practice supervisor and practice assessor. During your placements you will have an opportunity to work in another trust for a short period of time, this is to expand your experience and knowledge of different leadership and team working.
All successful applicants will be invited to an interview day. Interviews will be held by the University of Suffolk midwifery team in conjunction with Trust partners (exact dates and times will be confirmed with successful candidates). Applicants should allow the whole day for the interview process. Please note, the NMC stipulate that shortened midwifery training can only be offered to qualified Adult Nurses (child branch, mental health, ODP and other healthcare practitioners will unfortunately not be considered).
Please note recruitment for student midwives is taking place at several partner trusts across East Anglia for the same course. If you apply to more than one NHS trust via nhsjobs, you will be interviewed only once but by a panel of representatives from your chosen trusts alongside a representative from the University. Please specify in your application which trusts you have applied to (or are intending to apply to) so that panel interviews can be arranged with the correct representatives from each trust. Please only apply to the Trust where you wish to be employed for your practice placements and can commute to.
If you’re still undecided or have any further questions, please email Emily Ruegg Course Leader on e.ruegg@uos.ac.uk
