Chorley, United Kingdom Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Full time

An opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and highly motivated individual to join the Medical Engineering and Medical Device Library teams in providing equipment management and technical support throughout the Trust and to other healthcare providers in the North West.

Your responsibility consists of the collection, cleaning and return of medical devices to various clinical locations, general administration, including stores management, updating databases and keeping the workshop clean and tidy. Assisting other engineers as required and by ordering stock as directed by more senior staff. Technical work may be required from time to time but will be under supervision.

You will also be expected to be able to drive the trusts vehicles in order to provide an efficient collection and delivery of medical devices in the community. All work must attain a high level of quality and safety.

You will be expected to liaise closely with all users of medical equipment within the Trust, other NHS organisations, departmental colleagues, manufacturers and service vendors to assist in ensuring that the Trust both provides and receives the highest standard of service at the lowest cost.

Working as a member of a highly skilled team your duties will include the collection and delivery of medical equipment to local wards and departments and also to locations throughout the North West. You will be updating computerised record systems with details of medical equipment and arranging the collection and receipt of parcels.

Good communication skills and a professional outlook are required as you will be liaising with both companies and equipment users. You should be well organised and able to react flexibly as the work demands.

Engineering experience is not required for this post however, a practical disposition is needed and the ability to accurately record details of work is essential, as is a full driving license.

We have 9000 fantastic people working hard to deliver quality services to our patients. Whatever your role, you help look after 370,000 people in our local area & give specialist care to 1.5 million people across Lancashire & Cumbria.

Working with us gives you the knowledge and sense of pride that every activity you do genuinely does make a difference to support our patients & staff, ensuring we keep thriving & delivering outstanding healthcare right across our local towns.

You’ll have access to varied development opportunities, learn new skills, meet fab people & do things you’d never have done. You’ll learn about working in a hospital, interacting with people from all different roles to build skills & enhance your career path.

You’ll make an impact, be challenged to think differently, be bold & help innovate to keep improving things. Everything we do centres around patient care and enhancing their experience which means your role is pivotal and something really to be proud of.
