We require an individual to join our team of Ward Clerks within the Emergency Care Directorate, providing efficient and effective support to our busy Wards and Departments. This involves working within a busy reception area, dealing with a large volume of telephone calls received and moving and handling and electronic tracking of patient casenotes on a daily basis. You will also be required to update activity within our electronic Patient Administration System appropriately, whilst providing administrative and clerical support to the Senior Charge Nurse(s) and team(s) with general clerical duties relating to day-to-day Ward / Department administration. Relevant admin / clerical and reception experience is required, as is the ability to prioritise and deal with the day-to-day workload in a busy Health Service environment. A level of English language competency and communication skills necessary to perform this role safely and effectively is required. Please note the salary for this post is pro rata to part time hours. For informal enquiries, please contact Kerry Thomson, Admin & Secretarial Services Manager, Emergency Care Directorate on 01592 643355 extension 21386. To work in the United Kingdom, there is a legal requirement for an individual to demonstrate that they have the relevant permission to work in the country. This permission is, without exception, granted by the UK Visa and Immigrations Service. As part of the pre-employment checks for a preferred candidate, NHS Scotland Boards will check your entitlement to work in the UK. It can be evidenced through a number of routes including specific types of visa as well as EU settled and pre-settled status. To find out more about these routes of permission, please refer to the GOV.UK website here. For specific types of post, if you do not have the necessary eligibility to work in the UK, it might be possible (though not guaranteed) to secure sponsorship via a UK Skilled Worker/Health & Care Worker Visa. However, this is only possible if the employer is a licenced Sponsor, and if the post does not fall below the current minimum salary threshold or ‘going rate’. Further information on these criteria can be found here. It is ESSENTIAL that you have checked that you either already have an appropriate right to work in the UK or that the post would be eligible to be sponsored BEFORE submitting your application form. We offer flexible working and family-friendly policies and fully support disabled candidates, and candidates with long-term conditions or who are neurodivergent by making reasonable adjustments to our recruitment policy and practices. NHS Scotland is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce and eliminating unlawful discrimination. The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best. To this end, NHS Scotland welcomes applications from all sections of society.
