Lothian: DMWS have a vacancy for a Welfare Officer at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh - closing date 17th May

Do you want to make a real difference to the lives of people who have served in the armed forces and their families? We are looking for someone with strong interpersonal skills, who can work confidently and proactively both independently and as part of a team.

DMWS is an international charity that has been providing medical welfare support to the armed forces community for over 80 years. We support all members of the Armed Forces Community across the services, including serving personnel, reservists, veterans, and their family members/carers. This includes The Merchant Navy.

We are now recruiting for a fulltime Welfare Officer (WO) to be based at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh. The WO will work closely with clinical teams across the NHS Lothian region, working alongside discharge hub coordinators who have strong links to the health and social care partnerships but no dedicated knowledge of the armed forces community or the many third sector organisations available to offer additional support to veterans and their families.
