The Reception Team in ED offer part time posts from 15 to 22.5 to 30 hours a week, working within the Emergency Department and Children’s Emergency Department.

The Emergency Department reception is covered 24 hours, 7 days a week with a variety of shifts: 06:00-14:00, 08:00-16:00, 11:30-19:30, 14:00-22:00, 16:00-00:00, 17:00-01:00, 22:00-06:00

With 120,000 patients coming through ED annually the Receptionist position is the first point of contact for patients, often at a difficult and distressing time for them.

This is a busy and fast paced environment and requiring friendly, warm, and understanding individuals who can maintain a positive and highly patient centred, caring approach at all times.

As the front line in the Emergency Department, you will be working with a close-knit professional reception team. You will need to be a strong communicator and possess excellent admin and computer skills.
