Job summary
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a conscientious and supportive administrator to join our busy and dedicated team based within the Secure Inpatient Service at Roseberry Park.
Roseberry Park is an inpatient forensic mental health unit providing services and delivering care to the Tees Valley area. This unit is situated on Marton Road, Middlesbrough and benefits from free on-site parking and is easily accessed by car, bus and bicycle.
As a member of the Secure Inpatient Service Admin Team, you will work in an office at the centre of a ward. The office is an area of high activity, and no two days are the same. If you are looking for a new challenge, enjoy variety in your work and are looking to be part of a team striving to make a difference, we will welcome your application for this role.
Main duties of the job
Whilst having previous experience in an administrative role is essential, NHS or other health care experience is not. We are first and foremost looking for individuals with a passion for people, customer service experience, an interest in working in a health care setting and a 'can do' attitude.
The Ward Team Administrator role is pivotal in the day-to-day operations of the ward teams. As part of this role, you will work closely with the Nursing team, Consultants, Medics and the wider Secure Inpatient Service teams to provide the best possible care to the service user(s).
We are looking for someone who is able to multitask in a busy environment, communicate confidently, prioritise their workload, meet deadlines and build strong working relationships with a variety of people.
About us
Benefits for staff working in the Trust include:
* Free parking, car sharing and Cycle to Work Scheme.
* Access to Trust gyms, independent counselling, physiotherapy, Occupational Health, free flu vaccinations, Employee Support, Mindfulness Training, Employee Psychology and Staff Retreats.
* Generous NHS pension and annual leave package (27 days plus bank holidays).
* Regular 1-2-1s, quarterly supervision and annual appraisal, providing opportunity for discussion around achievements, challenges, aspirations and training and development opportunities.
Staff recognition is very important to us; we work closely with colleagues to support development, the staff voice, and to recognise teams and individuals, highlighting outstanding work through our Greatix and Star Award schemes.
