Description

Do you enjoy a challenge and like working in a busy environment? We are looking for a full time Assistant Medical Secretary to work within our Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department in the Women's and Children's Directorate.

We need someone who enjoys a challenge and is used to working in a busy environment. You must be able to work on your own initiative and have excellent prioritisation, organisational and interpersonal skills.

Experience of audio typing is essential and use of Microsoft Office packages is desirable.

The post holder will be expected to have good communication skills and be able to liaise effectively and efficiently with colleagues, professionals and patients.

The post holder will also be expected to cover for Medical Secretaries from time to time as part of the role.


The purpose of this job is to provide secretarial support to the Specialty Team in Obstetrics and Gynaecology by typing letters and reports, dealing with telephone queries and ensuring appropriate diagnostic investigations are arranged; working on your own initiative using knowledge, skills and experience to manage and prioritise workload independently in accordance with operational standards and protocols.


Wye Valley NHS Trust is a member of an NHS Foundation Group with South Warwickshire NHS FT and the George Eliot Hospital NHS Trust.


Located on the border with Wales in the shadow of the Black Mountains, we provide acute and community services across Herefordshire and into parts of Powys and run Hereford County Hospital and the community hospitals in Bromyard, Leominster and Ross-on-Wye.


We are a progressive and forward looking trust with ambitious plans to improve quality and integrate patient pathways through close collaborative working with our partners to deliver the quality of care we'd want for our family and friends.


More than 3,500 people work for the Trust - they tell us it's a great place to work, blending the busyness of a DGH with the benefits of working in a beautiful rural and unspoilt county like Herefordshire.


We can offer a great work-life balance and have a fine tradition of working with staff to help them achieve their full potential.


Russell Hardy, Trust Chairman:
"The strength of the Trust is its amazing staff; a great place to work, a great place to develop your career and a great place to reach your potential."

Our values - Care, Accountability, Respect and Excellence - are at the heart of all we do. We believe in providing the right care in the right place at the right time all the time.
