This post will cover the NNU and the children’s ward supporting audit, training, and clinical support for families to enable continued breastfeeding. Completion of the Unicef BFI training is required, and a passion for breastfeeding is essential. This post will support the work of the maternity acute breastfeeding coordinator, and candidates must be driven, able to work on their own initiative, very organized, and approachable.
