Are you an experienced Medical Coordinator skilled in coordinating responses to medical emergencies? UK-Med is a frontline medical aid charity. Born of the NHS, we’ve been working for over 30 years towards a world where everyone has the healthcare they need when crises or disasters hit.
Our responses are staffed from our Register of surge responders. Register members undergo extensive training and vetting in advance, so they can be quickly deployed to where they are most needed. Register members who join a response team are offered a fixed-term contract for the response and paid in line with our globally benchmarked pay scales.
To strengthen our emergency response capacity, we are expanding our roster of Medical Coordinators to support future preparedness and response activities, including potential deployments to the Democratic Republic of the Congo and other Francophone countries where operational needs arise.
