Is business administration repetitive or boring?
It's neither, this couldn't be further from the truth, the NHS must be well organised and keep detailed records of patients and staff across several wards.
You'll support the ability for patients or other organisations to see or speak to the right person at the right time who can give them the help they need.
This could be booking an appointment, getting medical advice, or helping a patient navigate the trust when they visit.
So overall administration isn't boring, it's varied.
You'll find solutions to everyday problems, such as:
- Receiving, recording, sorting and distributing any form of communication and mail and take appropriate action including escalation where appropriate.
- Receive and make telephone calls to/from staff accessing the service, managers, Human Resources and other NHS and non-NHS professionals/agencies, follow through all enquiries in a friendly and professional manner.
- Undertake general receptionist duties
- General administrative and clerical procedures including receiving and sending e-mails, filing, photocopying, scanning of documents as required.
What you'll need:
- Excellent communication skills- both verbal and written
- Microsoft office skills- Outlook, Word, and Excel
- Ability to meet deadlines and work under pressure
- Previous administrative experience
