The Medical Education department is looking for an enthusiastic individual to join our busy department. We require a hard working, people friendly individual who has exceptional organisational skills with the ability to manage and prioritise their work accordingly.
This role will keep you both busy and challenged. You must be highly motivated with excellent communication skills, the ability to use your own initiative and work well under pressure.
You will need to be adaptable, reliable and a team player with previous staff management experience.
The MEA will work co-operatively across a number of teams, to provide efficient and effective administrative and project support, with some secretarial responsibilities, to key functions within the Department. The MEA will develop detailed knowledge, skills and expertise in at least one designated, complex service area(s) to enable the Department to meet statutory / mandatory / HEE and other requirements in line with Department strategic goals and priority needs.
The MEA will proactively liaise and interface with both clinical and administrative colleagues in both educational and clinical contexts and settings in order to fully integrate and enhance department services in support of our students, trainees and other doctors and dentists.
We are one of the largest hospital trusts in England, with three acute hospitals and community sites serving a local population of around 700,000. We also provide specialist services for Kent and Medway.
We care about our patients and our people. We are focused on providing outstanding, safe patient care, and a positive working culture that benefits staff and patients alike. With our emphasis on staff training and development, a staff support scheme that’s second to none, and a healthy package of benefits, it’s easy to put down roots in East Kent Hospitals.
We offer a full package of benefits, including a car lease scheme; on-site childcare; generous annual leave in line with NHS terms and conditions; high street and public transport discounts; a 24/7 staff support service - and the little things that make life easier, like on-site Amazon lockers and fresh fruit and veg stalls.
