This is cross-site and you will be required to work from York Hospital and both our Rawcliffe and Clifton Moor sites. A UK driving Licence is required to transport Records across these sites.

The Records Archive Coordinator will provide a high quality service for all users of the Core Patient Database (CPD).

The post holder will work within the Health Records Department providing a comprehensive, confidential and effective retention and destruction service to the Trust.
