You will be the first point of contact for visitors, patients and other staff of all disciplines, and will provide a comprehensive range of clerical functions to support the ward team in delivering a high-quality service to patients.
Excellent interpersonal and communication skills are needed to liaise with all staff, patients, relatives and other third parties such as police, social services, and clinical staff in other Trusts.
You should be highly motivated, flexible, with attention to detail.
As a Ward Clerk you will be part of a multi-disciplinary ward team working on various departments and supporting other clinical areas across the trust.

There's never been a more exciting time to join TeamQEH. We're working on a once in a generation opportunity to build a new state-of-the-art hospital to open in 2031/32 and we are also carrying out on one of the biggest pieces of digital transformation work we've ever undertaken.
Our new electronic patient record (EPR) will replace paper-based patient records from 2026 and will lead to better, safer, joined-up care at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital and beyond.
At The QEH we provide a comprehensive range of specialist, acute, obstetrics and community-based services to around 331,000 people across west and north Norfolk, North Cambs and South Lincs.
We are an ambitious organisation that upholds our values of kindness, wellness and fairness. We strive for continuous quality improvement, recently demonstrated in our 2024 CQC maternity inspection rating our services as 'Good', and we are proud to be a place to learn and grow through recognised learning and apprenticeships.
We recognise and reward our 4,000 staff and volunteers, priding ourselves on a community atmosphere and positive team spirit. We have approx. 530 beds across 33 wards and have newly built education and training facilities, a range of modern award-winning centres alongside a talented team of people ready to give you a warm welcome. We love working here and think you will too.
