Ward Clerk - Band 2

Job summary

We are looking to recruit to an administrative support role largely based on an in-patient acute mental health ward at St Michael's Hospital, Warwick.

Main duties of the job

The post-holder will be required to work within an integrated and skill mixed team, providing an effective and efficient admin support to clinical staff and also support to cross-cover the admin hub on site. You will be required to learn different admin functions in order to provide input to the clinical and admin teams. Due to the nature of the role you must be able to multi-task under pressure and work autonomously and flexibly to meet the needs of the service. In addition, you will be required to provide cover to the reception/switchboard area on a rota basis to help cover lunch periods. This will be an interesting and varied role and we are, therefore, looking for individuals with a positive approach to change and who are supportive of service improvements.
