As a Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders (MSF) gynaecologist, you could change a woman\’s life forever.

From flying to remote areas to manage complicated deliveries to caring for women struggling from debilitating conditions in conflicts, MSF obstetricians/gynaecologists make a huge impact on women’s lives in our projects all over the world.

Our gynaecologists also require obstetrical skills as they will often run an entire maternity ward in a large secondary health facility.

  • Providing curative care for women and children
  • Performing obstetrical surgeries where necessary
  • Managing and training a team of staff to run the department and provide a high standard of care
  • Role requirements

  • Proven professional experience after registration – ST5 for OB/GYNs. We\’re flexible and will take all relevant experience into account where possible
  • Current or recent clinical experience
  • Full GMC or Irish Medical Council Registration (doctors without this will need to provide a transcript of training, from a recognised training faculty and proof of original registration in the country they are registered in)
  • Available for a minimum of three months
  • Minimum of three months’ work, volunteering or travel experience in developing countries
  • Willingness to work in unstable areas

    If you can speak French or Arabic you\’re much more likely to be accepted onto our register.
