MEDICAL SECRETARIES 2 x 30 hours per week permanent / 1 x 37.5 hours per week 6-month Fixed Term Contract

We are looking for friendly and enthusiastic people to join our very busy secretarial teams.

You will be required to undertake all secretarial duties including typing and dealing promptly with general correspondence and answering phone queries professionally, courteously and efficiently.

Providing a comprehensive secretarial service, the role will involve typing clinical letters with extreme accuracy within the agreed Trust wide targets and providing a central point of communication for patients and other healthcare professionals regarding treatments and consultation.

The successful candidate will have excellent communication, organisational and prioritisation skills. You will be required to interact with clinicians, patients and other staff colleagues directly and via phone and email, to ensure all requirements are met.

These values serve as a guiding principle, driving us towards our vision of delivering great joined up services to our local community. Whether at home, in the community, or within the hospital, our goal is to empower individuals to lead independent and healthier lives
