This is a busy and fulfilling job and requires a flexible mindset, a welcoming and empathetic team spirit and a ‘can-do’ attitude. Operating over two surgeries on the outskirts of Newbury, within 15 minutes’ drive of each other, this rewarding position will be based over both sites.
Our ideal candidates will be able to demonstrate that they have the required skills for the role. While experience in a GP Surgery is desirable, training will be given to the right persons. All new staff follow a comprehensive Induction program and shadow experienced staff during their first couple of weeks. We encourage professional development and learning, the majority of which is undertaken online through e-Learning.
A minimum of 22.5 hours available, with some extra evenings and Saturday mornings assisting the GPs/Nurses with coil fittings. Various shifts will be available at Kintbury Surgery AND Woolton Hill Surgery, with hours negotiable.
Please note that if you are currently a registered patient at the practice, if successfully recruited to this role, we would ask you to register at another local practice as per our practice policy.
For more information or to arrange a practice visit or discuss the shift patterns for this vacancy, please call either of the surgery numbers: 01635 253324 (Woolton Hill) or 01488 658294 (Kintbury) and speak to the Deputy Practice Manager, Emma Goodson.
