Are you a licensed Obstetrician and Gynaecologist (O&G) interested in gaining experience and knowledge in the humanitarian field, particularly in providing emergency medical care?

UK-Med is a frontline medical aid charity. Born of the British National Health Service, we’ve been working for over 30 years towards a world where everyone has the healthcare they need when crises or disasters hit.

We are seeking Obstetrician and Gynaecologists (O&G) that are enthusiastic about extending their knowledge and skills within a humanitarian environment. You will be able to make yourself available to travel and work internationally at short notice for a minimum of 4-6 weeks (longer availability is highly desirable) to join our register.

our ideal candidates will be responsible for providing pre-hospital and care within the scope of the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Team during O&G activities. They will actively participate in the coordination, supervision, and planning of patient care activities, with a strong focus on delivering high-quality, patient-centred care. Collaborating closely with the clinical team lead, medical doctors, and other healthcare professionals, they will be instrumental in running clinics, seeing and treating patients and acting as a focal point for patient transfers and referral.

In this role, you will be managing multiple aspects of patient care, serving as a technical resource to support activities in the O&G context. Your responsibility will be to ensure the implementation and maintenance of best practices and global standards in patient care. Additionally, working alongside midwives, you will play a central role in enhancing the local capacity of field staff, which may include the Ministry of Health or other NGOs, by delivering training in areas relevant to the O&G response.

You will be determined, high performing, compassionate and collaborative, as well as being committed to learning and supporting others to learn. Language skills will be an advantage. We offer a competitive salary and benefits along with a friendly working environment and the opportunity to make a real difference through and influential role in humanitarian programming.

Whilst UK-Med tries to provide feedback to applicants and share with them where they have fallen short in the competitive process, it may be very difficult to provide individual feedback.
