Job description
Job Summary
A fantastic opportunity has arisen for a conscientious and dynamic administrator to join our closeknit and supportive Outreach Recovery Team in York (also known as "YORT").
YORT is based in Huntington House and provides community mental health services for adults in York and Selby. This facility is nestled to the west of Monks Cross, is a short walk away from the Community Stadium and Vanguarde Shopping Park. It is on the outskirts of York City Centre just inside the ring road (North), benefits from free on-site parking and is easily accessible by car, bus and bicycle.
As a member of this small and friendly team, you will work in an open plan office on the first floor of the building. This floor is also home to other community mental health teams and is an area of high activity; 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, extensive organisational skills, an interest in working in a health care setting and a 'can do' attitude.
This role is at the heart of a dedicated and caring team and is a pivotal role in the day-to-day operations. As part of the administration team you will work closely with the medical secretary, Consultants and Nursing colleagues, supporting them in ensuring that high standards are maintained and they have everything they need to provide the best possible care for the service users.
We are looking for someone who feels comfortable multi-tasking in a busy environment, can communicate confidently, is thorough and takes pride in their work, can build strong working relationships with a variety of people, can prioritise their workload and work to deadlines.
About Us
With a starting salary of 24,.00 per annum, a generous NHS pension scheme, a fantastic annual leave package (27 days annual leave plus bank holidays) and access to other NHS staff benefits and discounts, it is fair to say that this job has a lot to offer. And, it's not just the NHS pay scale and benefits that we offer that make joining our organisation an excellent choice, there are many training and development opportunities available, giving you the opportunity for career progression.
All staff have regular 1-2-1s, quarterly supervision meetings and an annual appraisal, which provides lots of opportunity for discussion around achievements, challenges and aspirations.
Staff recognition is very important to us; we work closely with colleagues to support development, the staff voice, and to recognise teams and individuals through our Greatix and Star Award schemes; highlighting the outstanding work being done every day.
We recognise that Administrators are professionals and are a valuable asset to our organisation. We understand that they have a key role in the support and delivery of our services and that their contribution helps us in achieving our aim of consistently providing safe and high quality care for our service users. The kind of care we would want for ourselves and for our loved ones
