Job overview

Band 3 Senior Administrator

Castle Hill Hospital, Hull
Full Time / Part Time / Flexible Working Available

Are you ready to take the next step in your administrative career and play a vital role in patient care?

Our Senior Administrators are the backbone of our services. They support teams, coordinate complex workloads, and ensure clinics and departments run safely and efficiently. They are trusted, reliable and central to the smooth delivery of care.

Working within fast-paced and supportive teams, you will take on additional responsibility, helping to oversee processes, support colleagues and ensure patients receive the best possible experience.

Main duties of the job

What we’re looking for:

  • Previous administrative experience (NHS experience is welcome but not essential)
  • Strong organisational and prioritisation skills
  • Confidence using IT systems and managing data accurately
  • Excellent communication skills
  • A proactive, solution-focused approach
  • A commitment to teamwork and high standards of service

Most importantly, you will understand that behind every task is a patient waiting, and that your role makes a difference.

Why join us?

  • Flexible working options to support work-life balance
  • Exceptional NHS pension scheme
  • Generous annual leave entitlement
  • Supportive, close-knit teams
  • Ongoing development and progression opportunities
  • A career with purpose

Many of our senior managers began their NHS journey in roles just like this. If you are organised, motivated and ready to grow within a service that truly changes lives, this could be your opportunity.

Working for our organisation

The Humber Health Partnership is one of the largest acute and community Partnership arrangements in the NHS, seeing well over one million patients every year and managing a budget of over £1.3 billion.
Made up of two Trusts - Northern Lincolnshire and Goole NHS Foundation Trust (NLAG) and Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust (HUTH) - our Partnership has significant ambitions and is committed to delivering world-class hospital and community services for the 1.65 million people we serve.

Together we employ nearly 20,000 staff. Our five main hospital sites are Diana, Princess of Wales Hospital, Scunthorpe General Hospital and Goole and District Hospital, for NLAG and Hull Royal Infirmary and Castle Hill Hospital for HUTH.

As Teaching Hospitals working with the Hull York Medical School, we both lead and contribute to research in many areas - biomedical research, primary care, palliative medicine, cardiovascular and respiratory medicine, vascular surgery, cancer surgery and oncology.

We believe that by developing a diverse, inclusive, innovative, skilled and caring workforce, we can deliver excellent care to our patients and a great future for our employees, our Partnership and our community.
