A Vacancy at Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust.


We have an exciting opportunity for a Receptionist to join our Eating Disorder Service based in the Roxborough Road Site.



The Eating Disorder Service offers a range of specialist services to women, men, children, and young people who are suffering from anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and other eating disorders. The service provides a wide range of treatments, including assessment and community, outpatient therapy, day programme services, and inpatient care across different sites.



We are looking for an enthusiastic and motivated Receptionist to provide important administrative and customer service to ensure the smooth running of our very busy and dynamic team. The role comes with a variety of responsibilities, providing support to the clinical team, service users, patients, and carers who attend the service.



As an NHS Trust, we strongly encourage and support vaccination as this remains the best way to protect yourself, your family, your colleagues, and, of course, patients and service users when working in our healthcare settings.



The EDS team is strong and supportive and has excellent structures to offer regular supervision. This is a great opportunity to join our team to support the delivery of high-quality EDS for North West London. We are looking for exceptional individuals with the right attitude, skills, and knowledge who share our passion to deliver the best quality care experience for patients and their families.

The post holder will be based on-site and will provide comprehensive administrative support to ensure the effective delivery of high-quality services by the EDS Team. A clear understanding of the programme’s objectives will be essential, as will the ability to support the team in fulfilling their responsibilities efficiently.

Key responsibilities include:
• Communicating with patients and their families/carers.
• Arranging appointments and managing associated administrative tasks.
• Collaborating closely with various corporate teams across CNWL Trust to support service delivery.

The role requires initiative in managing personal and team workloads, with a focus on meeting service objectives and deadlines. The post holder should be capable of working independently, exercising discretion, sound judgement, and critical thinking where necessary.

This post is highly suitable for an applicant who is working at a similar grade in the NHS or for those currently working in a non-NHS setting with aspirations to enter into Health Service administration.

The post is based at EDS STRIDES & Outpatients Roxborough Road Site, 13-17 Roxborough Road, Harrow, London HA1 1NS.
