An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Ward Administrator to join our established Administration Team at Broadmoor High Secure Hospital.

We are looking for a highly motivated administrator who works well under pressure and is able to prioritise work effectively. Due to the nature of the work confidentiality is of great importance.

You will provide administrative support at patient Care Programme Approach meetings, taking comprehensive minutes which you will then disseminate to the relevant parties. You will work closely with other administrators and the Head of Administration. Your administrative duties will be based on the ward and therefore you will work in close proximity to patients.

Broadmoor Hospital is a specialist service that provides assessment, treatment and care in conditions of high security for men from London and the south of England. It is one of three high-security psychiatric hospitals in England, and is internationally recognised, both for work with patients and for our extensive research activities.

We treat people with mental illness and personality disorders who represent a high degree of risk to themselves or to others.

The ability to work using your own initiative as well as being a team player is essential, so too are excellent interpersonal skills. You should be able to manage and prioritise your own workload to meet agreed deadlines and be IT proficient.
