Job Description

Are you passionate about making a real difference in the lives of pregnant women facing barriers to equitable maternity care?

Sister Circle is a women-led charity based in London, working with women from diverse backgrounds who are living with complex situations and are at the highest risk of poor healthcare. Whatever a woman’s circumstances, we walk alongside her as an individual, building trusting relationships that enable women to thrive mentally, physically, and socially.

Our support for women includes:

Maternity Mates: one-to-one continuity of care support during pregnancy, labour, birth, and postnatally by a trained local volunteer who may share experiences and speak up to 15 languages between them.
Her Health: Advocacy in two languages for women who have experienced gender-based violence and female genital cutting.
Healing Conversations: One-to-one trauma counselling in five languages and baby loss peer support.

Sister Circle is looking for a part-time Project Manager who is committed to tackling one of the most pressing challenges in women’s health today—improving equity and justice for underserved communities of women.

The Role

As our Project Manager, you will lead the pilot of our Maternity Mates Programme and key relationships with NHS and Public Health stakeholders and local partners in a new delivery area. You will ensure the Maternity Mates programme is integrated into the wider maternity care system, ensuring our beneficiaries receive holistic, joined-up support, improving experiences for pregnant women often impacted by socioeconomic, linguistic, and cultural challenges.
