This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with secretarial or PA experience to contribute to the continuous improvement of our administrative services. The ideal candidate will be adaptable, resourceful, and customer-focused, thriving in a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same.
While prior experience in a healthcare or hospital setting is beneficial, it is not essential. If you are a motivated professional with strong organisational skills, a positive attitude, and a passion for making a difference, we’d love to hear from you.
Join us in a rewarding role where your contributions directly enhance the efficiency and quality of care within our directorate.
This is a vital role within our Integrated Community Care Directorate by providing essential support to the Senior Leadership Team. Our roles are diverse, fast-paced, and rewarding, offering the opportunity to make a real difference to patient outcomes. Your day-to-day responsibilities will include:
Prioritise and organise own day-to-day work schedule, completing work within agreed timescales.
Prepare and produce high quality correspondence, minutes, agendas, papers and reports using Microsoft Word and Excel.
Exercise discretion and maintain a high standard of confidentiality, communication and interpersonal skills including telephone enquiries.
Provide outreach secretarial support in the clinical team bases including collection, liaison and distribution of administrative material.
Maintain staff employment records and ensure any changes in an employees’ details are included in their personal file.
Organise meetings, interviews and/or training days including venue, equipment, materials, booking places and keeping attendance records.
While previous administration experience would be beneficial, we are primarily seeking individuals with a genuine passion for working in healthcare and a proactive, "can-do" attitude, with strong communication skills to effectively support the Senior Leadership Team.
The successful candidate will join a friendly, supportive, and collaborative team that values the contributions of all staff.
