Description

We are looking for an experienced administrator to provide an efficient and effective administrative and office support service to the Trust's Children in Care.

The main purpose of the role is to work with existing administrators and clinicians to support the co-ordination of health assessments for children in care.

You will be responsible for inputting accurate data, including the retrieval, secure transfer and maintenance of electronic and manual patient records, using multiple systems.

You will support the coordination of the Children in Care journey by liaising closely with members of the multi-disciplinary team, creating the necessary notifications to support timely communication between services, and keeping the child's best interest at the centre of your care.

This is a fantastic opportunity to work in a highly motivated service and develop further skills and knowledge within the Children in Care agenda.

You will support the prioritisation and allocation of rotated Admin task work-streams, ensuring strict scheduling of complex activities are met, monitoring progress and deadlines and effectively escalating details of that progress.

Mersey Care is one of the largest trusts providing physical health and mental health services in the North West, serving more than 1.4 million people across our region and are also commissioned for services that cover the North West, North Wales and the Midlands.

Mersey Care is one of only three trusts in the UK that offer high secure mental health facilities.

At the heart of all we do is our commitment to 'perfect care' - care that is safe, effective, positively experienced, timely, equitable and efficient.

We support our staff to do the best job they can and work alongside service users, their families, and carers to design and develop future services together.

We're currently delivering a programme of organisational and service transformation to significantly improve the quality of the services we provide and safely reduce cost as we do so.
