Main duties of the job

We are expanding our team of bank administration and clerical workers to provide support across our trust in response to demands and needs of our services. You will have the opportunity to register your interest for diverse, short term assignments available across various departments throughout the trust, working on an as-and-when-required basis.

We are looking for individuals who are educated to at least a GCSE standard/level (or comparable experience), with experience of clerical and administration duties in an office or similar environment. You should be competent in the use of Microsoft Office applications (including Excel, Word, Outlook and Teams). You will need to have excellent communication skills, as you will liaise with patients, visitors and staff at all levels across the trust, as well as good team, adaptability and interpersonal skills. You must be able to prioritise your own workload and work to strict deadlines, whilst maintaining a high level of accuracy. You must have excellent keyboard and IT skills to access and enter data onto various systems.

Although this role is offered under a zero hours contract, there is an expectation that you will actively and regularly take on bank assignments throughout the duration of your engagement. In return, we can offer you a range of benefits, including flexible working, NHS pension contributions, holiday pay (additional hourly uplift), access to NHS discount schemes, and weekly pay.

About us

This is a really exciting time to join UHD! We are a three site acute trust with 'university hospital' status, due to our partnership with Bournemouth University, delivering highly regarded health services to the county of Dorset, and beyond. We employ some 10,000 staff, with an ambitious £250m estates programme on the way to delivering state-of-the-art facilities to meet the current and future healthcare needs of the populations we serve.

In an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) with over seven miles of sandy beaches, you'll find inspirational opportunities to achieve your perfect work/life balance. With the New Forest and the Purbecks on our doorstep, we're also less than three hours from London by road or train. The thriving towns of Poole, Bournemouth and Christchurch give way to idyllic villages and unspoilt landscapes just minutes from our hospitals.

Please note:

Staff recruited are expected to be available to work flexibly across all our Trust locations when service demands require it.

COVID-19 vaccination remains the best way to protect yourself, your family, your colleagues and our patients from the virus when working in our healthcare settings. Whilst COVID-19 vaccination is not a condition of employment we do encourage our staff to get vaccinated.
