Skills and experiences:

  • A caring, approachable nature and a confident 'can-do' attitude
  • Ability to keep accurate records and clearly communicate relevant information to team members
  • Excellent communication skills to build positive relationships with customers, families, and internal and external agencies
  • Experience of working as a member of a team
  • A positive and accepting approach to customers whatever their needs
