Tees Esk and Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a conscientious and supportive Medical Secretary to join our busy and dedicated team based within Ridgeway at Roseberry Park. Roseberry Park is an inpatient forensic mental health unit providing services and delivering care to the Tees Valley area. This unit is situated on Marton Road, Middlesbrough and benefits from free on-site parking and is easily accessed by car, bus and bicycle. As a member of the Ridgeway Admin Team, you will work in an open plan office alongside other administrators. The open plan office is an area of high activity, and no two days are the same. If you are looking for a new challenge, enjoy variety in your work and are looking to be part of a team striving to make a difference, we will welcome your application for this role. You must have the Right to Work in the UK in order to be successfully appointed to this role. Please note, this role does not meet the required eligibility criteria for sponsorship under the Skilled Worker visa and therefore the Trust is unable to offer sponsorship for this particular role. Main duties of the job

Whilst having previous experience in an administrative role is essential, NHS or other health care experience is not. We are first and foremost looking for individuals with a passion for people, customer service experience, an interest in working in a health care setting and a 'can do' attitude. The Medical Secretary role is pivotal in the day to day operations of the medical and multidisciplinary teams. As part of this role, you will work closely with Consultants, Medics, clinicians, Senior Managers and the wider Secure Inpatient Service teams to provide the best possible care to the service user. We are looking for someone who is able to multitask in a busy environment, communicate confidently, prioritise their workload and meet deadlines and build strong working relationships with a variety of people. About us

Benefits for staff working in the Trust include: Free parking, car sharing and Cycle to Work Scheme. Access to Trust gyms, independent counselling, physiotherapy, Occupational Health, free flu vaccinations, Employee Support, Mindfulness Training, Employee Psychology and Staff Retreats. Generous NHS pension and annual leave package (27 days plus bank holidays). Regular 1-2-1s, quarterly supervision and annual appraisal, providing opportunity for discussion around achievements, challenges, aspirations and training and development opportunities. Staff recognition is very important to us; we work closely with colleagues to support development, the staff voice, and to recognise teams and individuals, highlighting outstanding work through our Greatix and Star Award schemes. We recognise that Administrators are professionals and are a valuable asset to our organisation. We understand that they have a key role in the support and delivery of our services and that their contribution helps us in achieving our aim of consistently providing safe and high quality care for our service users. The kind of care we would want for ourselves and for our loved ones. Our organisation is on a 'Journey to Change', creating a great experience for our staff is one of three big goals. Ultimately, our aim is to be a proactive, responsible and mindful employer; recruiting, retaining and training our staff, for the right roles, at the right time. Job responsibilities
