This position is for 36 hours per week Monday to Thursday.

This is a position that requires an eye for detail and a systematic approach. It is busy, varied, and at times can be intense. Full training and mentoring is done in-house, working alongside experienced staff members until you are confident in the role. We generally advise new team members that although they will feel comfortable with the day to day workings of the practice within 6-8 weeks it takes up to 9 months to feel truly competent and confident with **all** of the systems.

- Keep the reception area and lounge clean and tidy
- Organise stock supplies and control of stationery and related items
- Other duties as necessary for the efficient operation of the practice
