  • Direct the flow of patients between the services, managing capacity vs demand;
  • Triaging and managing all patient queries, directing them to the most appropriate clinical or non-clinical team;
  • Overseeing the booking of all clinics and procedure lists, ensuring full slot utilisation and bookings within clinical time frames;
  • Full waiting list validation across both services, ensuring RTT standards are met, waiting lists are accurate and ensuring wait times are equitable across both services;

We are among the UK's busiest, most successful foundation trusts.

We provide specialist care for patients including heart and lung, cancer and renal services as well as a full range of local hospital and community services for people in Lambeth and Southwark.


We have a long tradition of clinical and scientific achievement and - as part of KHP - we are one of England's eight academic health sciences centres, bringing together world-class clinical services, teaching and research.

We have one of the National Institute for Health Research's biomedical research centres, established with King's College London in 2007, as well as dedicated clinical research facilities.


We have around 22,700 staff, making us one of the largest NHS Trusts in the country and one of the biggest employers locally.

We aim to reflect the diversity of the communities we serve and continue to develop new and existing partnerships with local people, patients, neighbouring NHS organisations, local authorities and charitable bodies and GPs.
