Job overview

Do you have a driving ambition to provide a crucial service, working alongside our Out of Hours Clinicians delivering excellent patient facing care? If you love driving day and night, this is the perfect opportunity for you.
We are recruiting Driver/Receptionists for our Hertfordshire and West Essex Service to assist with a variety of tasks, including transporting GPs around the locality to visit patients. You will also be providing a point of contact for patients upon arrival at our dedicated bases, welcoming them and ensuring their confidentiality is always maintained. For the driving side of the role, you will need both automatic and manual licences as we have a large fleet of vehicles. 

Main duties of the job

The role of the driver is to transport the doctor to home visits quickly and safely and to ensure that the in-car equipment is operational and secure.

The role of receptionist at the Out of Hours bases involves checking in patients, appointment booking and comfort calling, opening and closing the base and doing stock checks.

As and when the service requires, Drivers may need to move to support another base within the region (a base other than that for which the original shift was booked).

Working for our organisation
