Job overview

Do you want a role that offers job satisfaction and challenges where no two days are the same?

The Mental Health Liaison Service (MHLS) is a Core 24 liaison team that aspires to clinical, teaching and research excellence. We are a dynamic, rapidly developing and evolving service covering all ages over 16 years in a 1254-bed busy general hospital dealing with over 500 referrals per month.

Please note this position is based at the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital with limited parking opportunity on site but access to free and regular bus travel from named Park & Ride locations. There is opportunity for flexibility around working days and hours with associated pay enhancements.

Main duties of the job

We have an exciting opportunity to join a successful team of administrators considered pivotal in what can be a demanding yet rewarding environment. 

The successful candidate will demonstrate enthusiasm and flexibility with an organised, collaborative and priority-based approach to administration delivery.  The role will include call handling, inbox management, minute taking, data entry and general administrative support to clinical teams, consultants and team leaders. Candidates will need to demonstrate exceptional interpersonal and customer service skills with a dedication to confidentiality and service user experience.

You will be joining a fast paced and changing environment using a range of clinical systems and Microsoft packages. Previous experience of all Microsoft packages is desirable in the successful candidate. Previous experience of Trust IT systems would be of benefit but not essential as all training will be provided.

We have strong, established professional networks coupled with an exceptional leadership team who will ensure you are truly cared for and cared about.

Why Norfolk and Suffolk? The people here are warm and welcoming, you’ll never be far from the beautiful coastline or Broads National Park. We’re an hour and a half away from London and have an international airport in Norwich too. Our villages, towns and cities are packed full of history, independent cafes, shops and theatres. We have excellent shopping, eating out, top ranking schooling and affordable house prices too.
