The post holder will provide high quality front line administrative support to the Emergency Department (ED) and Same Day Emergency Care Department (SDEC). This involves collaborating closely with all clinical staff and operational teams. The post holder will work as part of the Urgent and Emergency Care (UEC) team ensuring an efficient, high-quality service is provided. This includes providing a welcoming and professional service to patients, relatives, and all other agencies.
These duties do not require direct supervision on a day-to-day basis and the post holder is responsible for the management and prioritisation of their own workload. The staff will need to be flexible, have a range of knowledge of hospital work and external agencies. Staff are expected to work shift patterns, including nights and weekends where they will work independently under pressure with constant interruptions to their daily workload and exposed to conflict and sensitive issues.

Milton Keynes University Hospital, in proud partnership with the University of Buckingham, is a University Teaching Hospital committed to advancing patient care through cutting-edge research and education. With a “Good” rating from the CQC and significant investment underway, this is an exciting time to join our team and grow your career.
As a medium sized general hospital, we provide a full range of general medical and surgical services, including a busy Emergency Department, Maternity, and Paediatrics. As the population of our city and surrounding areas continues to grow rapidly, we are expanding and enhancing our facilities to meet rising demand and improve access to care for all our communities.
We are also proud to offer a growing portfolio of specialist services. In January 2025 we opened our state-of-the-art Radiotherapy Centre, bringing advanced cancer treatment closer to home. Our services also include neonatology, specialist surgical care, and a wide range of diagnostics, supported by the new Community Diagnostic Centre at Whitehouse Health Centre.
Further investment is underway, including the construction of Oak Wards – a new ward block featuring two 24-bed wards – and the recently approved Women and Children’s Centre, set to open by 2030.
