We are looking for someone with excellent interpersonal skills who is compassionate, kind and empathetic and understands the importance of delivering individualised patient centred care and who has a passion and understanding of the importance of listening and learning from the experiences of our patients to join the patient experience team and engagement with patients and key stake holders in the community at the Queen Elizabeth NHS Foundation Trust.
