Leeds Community Healthcare NHS Trust

Neighbourhood Administration Co-ordinator

Information:

This job is now closed

Job summary

The Administration Review within Leeds Community Healthcare has led to the development of several Neighbourhood Administration Coordinator roles across the city.

As a Neighbourhood Administration Coordinator, you will work closely with the Neighbourhood Team Coordinator and Management Support Officer. You will line manage a team of administration staff to ensure that daily tasks are completed to required standards. You will work collaboratively with colleagues across other portfolios and hubs to ensure that the Service is adequately staffed.

The Service operates 7am 5pm seven days a week, therefore there will be a requirement for flexibility as there may be a need for you to work outside of core hours on evenings. There is also an expectation to work weekends on a rota basis. This is an exciting time within the Administration Service and these roles provide an opportunity for the right people to work with us to continue to provide outstanding administrative support.

Main duties of the job

The ideal candidate for this role will have excellent communication, interpersonal and IT skills as well as having a passion for providing high quality support to patients and colleagues. You will have experience of working in a busy office environment, excellent time management skills and the ability to organise, prioritise and meet deadlines with an ability to work under pressure.

Experience of supervising staff is required as you will directly supervise and line manage administrative staff within your portfolio. You must therefore be able to adapt and prioritise your own workload as well as the workload of direct reports/administrative colleagues.
