Summary
It is as important to us that our secretary gets on well with our team and our patients as it is that they are skilled at their work. If there are areas of this work that may be unfamiliar to you, we would rather work with you to develop the necessary skills than employ the wrong person. Another consequence of the small size of this practice is the significant overlay of roles between all members of the team. This may result in your own work being interrupted by a pressing need in reception if busy. The start of the day may look more like a receptionist's job than a secretary's. The job can be busy at times, but we try our best to prevent it being stressful and we usually succeed. The flexibility to be able to offer extra support to the receptionist or practice manager during holiday periods or even to cover extra hours to cover the absence of colleagues could also be helpful. In an ideal world we are looking for someone who can contribute warmly to the running of the practice. Someone who is friendly, helpful, kind, flexible and capable. If you are interested in the post, please do take the time to explore our practice website and maybe look at our ratings on the NHS GP Patient Survey.
