The post holder will be responsible for the provision of high quality professional administrative and clerical support to the Diabetes team and their caseload of roughly 120 patients.

The post holder will facilitate good communication between staff members and other teams. The post holder will provide flexible administrative support service, as required by workload demands and as agreed. The post also involves constant interaction and communication with patients, parents, and families and therefore the post holder is expected to be aware of Child Protection/Safeguarding issues and security protocols. The post holder will also be expected to provide nonclinical advice and guidance to children and families regarding the
arrangement and administration of their hospital visits.

Whittington Health serves a richly diverse population and works hard to ensure that all our services are fair and equally accessible to everyone. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the way we look after our staff. We aim to employ a workforce which is as representative as possible of this population, so we are open to the value of differences in age, disability, gender, marital status, pregnancy and maternity, race, sexual orientation, and religion or belief. The Trust believes that as a public sector organisation we have an obligation to have recruitment, training, promotion and other formal employment policies and procedures that are sensitive to these differences. We think that by doing so, we are better able to treat our patients as well as being a better place to work.
