- Interest free Season Ticket Loan.
- Cycle to Work scheme.
- Discounts on Medivet products and services.
**Role Accountabilities**
Exceptional care is at the heart of everything we do at Medivet. That’s the care for our patients, our clients and for each other - we really want to make a positive difference through every interaction we have.
In this role you will:
- Triage the impact of any emergency appointments, contacting clients to arrange an alternative appointment where necessary.
- Manage the practice diary to ensure appointment availability is aligned to best practice and available skillset.
- Ensure appointment slots are available for clients to book online.
- Carry out reception duties, greeting clients on arrival, and updating records.
- Process any repeat prescription order requests.
- Be an advocate of the Medivet Healthcare Plan, and complete relevant sign-up documentation with clients.
- Ensure online practice information is up to date, with accurate opening hours and current colleagues.
**Your Skills and Experience**
- Excellent client facing and reception skills.
- Experience of working as part of a team and building positive working relationships.
- Client care skills, with the ability to remain calm under pressure and be diplomatic when needed.
- Able to prioritise a range of tasks and own workload.
- Good numeracy skills, with the ability to manage payments and cash up.
- Experience in using online appointment booking systems.
- Administration skills and experience
- Trustworthy and responsible
Desirable:
- Previous veterinary receptionist experience.
