Starting a new job while pregnant

How does this work? I know i wouldn't get their maternity package but would qualify for maternity leave / maternity allowance. Would I still be entitled to a job to come back to after maternity leave? All the documentation I have read on this is unclear. It's more important to me that I have a job to come back to than getting extra maternity money.
For info, I am employed and have been employed without any career break (other than previous maternity leave) for 10 years. I'm thinking about taking a new job without any break. I'm in early pregnancy right now.

If you have a job I think I'd keep hold, take their maternity package, know I'd got it to go back to and look to move in 12 months.

But yes, you would be entitled to return after maternity leave.
