We are always looking for writers with knowledge of maternity issues to write Birth Information pages, articles or reviews for our online Journal and AIMS books. AIMS wants to provide all maternity service users and those who support them with high quality, unbiased, evidence-based information. If you would like to be a part of this, we would love to hear from you. Please email enquiries@aims.org.uk with details of your interest.
Most of the work of AIMS is carried out by our Volunteers, but from time to time we employ contractors. This happens if we do not have a Volunteer available who has both the time and the specialist skills we need.
We employ a part-time office manager to help support the work of our Volunteers, and we use contractors for a variety of other work.
For long term paid roles, such as Journal Editors and Office Manager we advertise; and carry out an interview and selection process.
For short term contract opportunities we may reach out to those we know can provide a service.
If you are able to offer any of the services listed below, and would like to be considered for contract work with AIMS, please send your details to admin@aims.org.uk
