Main duties of the job

What we are looking for

An experienced Medical Secretary seeking a new, rewarding opportunity.

An enthusiastic, committed colleague that will take on ownership of their workload and responsibilities.

If you are a reliable, outgoing professional who loves interacting with people on all levels and wants to play a crucial role in supporting the primary care sector and growing practice, then you are just the type of candidate for this role.

About us

AteHarleyStreetwe are dedicated to providing holistic and comprehensive practice management solutions to enhance the experience for both our colleagues and our patients. During our time in practice, we've found that many GPs get distracted from providing expert clinical care due to dealing with other non-clinical issues such as:

Practice management and administration

Recruitment and staffing issues

Holiday and sickness cover

Non-clinical quality control

Financial and budgeting obligations

We passionately believe that medical professionals should be able to focus on the role that they love and were trained for that of being a caring clinician offering effective and efficient patient care.
