Outpatients Administrator

Band 2

Trosolwg o'r swydd

We are looking for a friendly, professional and enthusiastic Band 2 Administrator to join our well-established SACT Services team within Department 1 Oak Road Treatment Centre (ORTC).

This is a varied role combining reception, outpatient administration and Bloods Closer to Home (BCTH) support. The post holder will act as a first point of contact for patients, visitors and healthcare professionals, providing a welcoming and efficient service while supporting the smooth day-to-day running of the department.

The role involves communicating with patients both face-to-face and over the telephone, managing appointments, supporting phlebotomy services, maintaining patient records and responding to a wide range of enquiries. You will work closely with administrative and clinical colleagues but will also be expected to use your own initiative to resolve routine queries and prioritise your workload effectively.

If you are organised, calm under pressure, have excellent communication skills, a caring and empathetic approach, and good IT and administrative skills, we would welcome your application. Full training will be provided.
