Working closely with clinicians and colleagues, you’ll help ensure clinical activity runs smoothly and contribute to the continuous improvement of our services.

We welcome informal discussions and visits to the department. Please get in touch with the listed contacts if you’d like to learn more about the role and whether it could be the right fit for you.

• Maintaining accurate patient records and filing systems, including handling incoming post and scanning documentation to PAS.
• Supporting Senior Medical Secretariesby typing, editing and dispatching clinical correspondence using digital dictation systems, ensuring accuracy and timely turnaround.
• Managing the departmental diagnostic tracker, checking and sorting test results, sharing information with clinicians, and completing follow‑up actions to support smooth patient pathways.

• Working closely with administrative and clinical teamsto support referral‑to‑treatment processes and maintain up‑to‑date outcome information.
