About the Role

Join a specialist team at the heart of our fitness to practice operation, where clinical expertise helps shape fair, proportionate and informed decisions that ultimately support public safety. Our Clinical Advice team brings together experienced nurses and midwives who understand the reality and complexity of clinical practice across a wide range of health and social care settings. You’ll have the opportunity to share patient safety insight, contribute to organisational learning, support colleagues’ development and help identify improvements to regulatory processes and policy.

Responsibilities

  • Analyse detailed and sometimes challenging clinical information, bringing together evidence, contemporary research and your understanding of real-world practice to provide clear, balanced and independent clinical advice.
  • Help colleagues understand what happened, why it happened, the potential consequences, and whether practice fell below reasonable standards of care.
  • Identify clinical, human and organisational factors, assess risk and seriousness, highlight where further expertise or safeguarding support is needed, and help cases progress effectively and proportionately.
  • Share clinical intelligence and emerging trends.
  • Contribute to quality assurance and clinical governance.
  • Support training and induction.
  • Improve processes.
  • Help colleagues navigate sensitive and psychologically challenging work.

Requirements

  • Registered midwife with substantial clinical knowledge.

  • Able to interpret complex clinical evidence and distinguish significant concerns from issues that require a proportionate response.
  • Comfortable assessing information from multiple sources, identifying key issues and forming clear, evidence-based conclusions.
  • Able to provide robust clinical advice that can withstand scrutiny, including when working under pressure.
  • Able to translate complex clinical concepts into clear, concise advice for colleagues who may not have a clinical background.
  • Committed to keeping up to date with research, evidence and contemporary standards of practice.
  • Able to recognise the human factors, organisational circumstances and wider clinical environment that influence practice.
  • Skilled at building trusted relationships and working effectively with colleagues and stakeholders across an organisation.
  • Able to work thoughtfully with complex and psychologically distressing material, while maintaining your own wellbeing and professional boundaries.
  • Curious about emerging trends, patient safety and better ways of working, with the leadership skills to turn insight into positive change.
  • Able to commit to working in one of our office locations twice per week.
  • Staff new to the NMC will ordinarily be appointed to the bottom of the relevant pay band.
