Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
We are actively seeking an enthusiastic and highly motivated Midwife Sonographer/Sonographer to join our forward-thinking team of friendly & supportive professionals in providing a range of obstetric ultrasound examinations.

We provide services across 3 hospital sites - Andover, Basingstoke, and Winchester. Ideally, the successful candidate will be able to work at a minimum of two of these sites, though consideration will be given to the individual's skill set, home address, and preferences.
