Maternity & Gynaecology Careers Open Day

The maternity and gynaecology teams at Leeds Teaching Hospitals are holding an open day event on Saturday 10th February to showcase their amazing work and everything we can offer you in your future career.

Our event is aimed at anyone who would like to learn more about all the job roles that make our services run smoothly. It is also open to students in year 9 and above.

There are a huge range of career options available in our services, including entry roles in clinical support or administration, as well as midwifery, management (clinical and non-clinical), medical or nursing roles specialising in children’s or gynaecological health. We will also be joined by colleagues from our Neonatal and Children’s services, who we work closely with.
