About us
Children’s Hospice South West (CHSW) is a successful registered charity dedicated to the provision of hospice care for children with life limiting conditions and their families from the South West.
About the role and you
Are you an experienced systems administrator who is motivated and passionate about how digital systems and technology can support care services? This post may be the next move for you.
At CHSW we are proud to deliver excellence to the babies, children and families we care for and recognise the importance of digital systems to support this. We are currently embracing new ways of working and are introducing new Care Digital Information Systems.
This is an exciting opportunity for a flexible, enthusiastic, and experienced administrator (ideally with experience in a healthcare or social setting) to help support and coordinate the development, implementation and embedding of these systems to meet the needs of the service.
Experience of maintaining and supporting users of a digital system is essential. Experience of working within a healthcare or clinical setting is desirable. You will also need to be highly organised, able to prioritise workloads, have an eye for detail, have strong all-round communication skills, and experience of organising a busy workload. Strong IT skills including working knowledge of MS Office packages (e.g. Word, Excel, Outlook) as well as experience using databases is also essential.
This role can be based from any of our three hospices, with the option of some home working. To support all our care teams, you will also be required to travel to all three sites as required.
What we offer
We value our staff and offer an excellent working environment with an enthusiastic and committed team. You will also benefit from:
33 days (plus bank holidays) holiday entitlement (pro-rata), which increases with service
Enhanced sick pay scheme rising up to 6 months full and 6 months half pay
Personal pension scheme with 7% employer contribution
Family friendly policies, with enhanced maternity and adoption pay
Occupational health, wellbeing and counselling services and employee assistance programme
Group life insurance scheme
Training and development opportunities
Environmental and green agenda
A supportive and inclusive environment
A chance to make a real difference
