Job summary
A Maternity & Neonatal Voices Partnership (MNVP) is an independent team made up of women, birthing persons and their families; Providers; the Integrated Care Board (ICB); who commission health services, the Local Authority (LA), who commission public health and social care, and our Voluntary Services.
The Nottingham and Nottinghamshire MNVP includes the areas of Nottingham City and Nottinghamshire County, incorporating two Hospital providers: Nottingham University Hospitals (NUH) NHS Trust and Sherwood Forest Hospitals (SFH) NHS Foundation Trust.
The MNVP works in collaboration with system partners within the local Maternity & Neonatal System (LMNS) to support service improvements.
Our MNVP also includes a great team of passionate MNVP volunteers who represent and reach out to local women, birthing persons and their families to gather feedback on their experiences. Some volunteers also collaborate with the Providers to support service improvements based on the voice of our service users.
Hearing the voices of women and families is a requirement of NHS England's Three Year Delivery Plan for Maternity & Neonatal Services (March 2023).
We are recruiting to the position of an MNVP Business & Project Support Manager to support us in delivering these requirements. It is hoped that this new role will be an enabler for our MNVP to effectively listen, gather feedback from service users and to feel confident to get involved with service improvement activities.

About us
This advertised post will sit within the Local Maternity & Neonatal System Programme Management Office (LMNS PMO), a team within the ICB who has oversight and supports transformation of local maternity and neonatal care and who also host the MNVP.
