Truro, United Kingdom Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Would you like to do a job that makes a difference every day, using your skills and experience, to support the teams that help with their mental health in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly?

Would you like to live in Cornwall or are you lucky enough to already live here? Cornwall is a county of outstanding natural beauty with its endless rugged coastlines, beautiful countryside, and unbeatable beaches. Attracting millions of visitors each year, this could be your chance to move here permanently and make a difference to the children and young people in our community

An opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic, flexible and well-motivated Medical Secretary to join our Team. This post will be based in our Penzance office and we currently adopt a hybrid way of working where there is an opportunity on some days of the week to work from home.

You will be supporting a multidisciplinary team and will be involved with answering calls to the service, arranging appointments, audio typing letters, scanning, and uploading documentation onto appropriate systems, photocopying, minute taking and some general administrative work as required.

This role will be challenging and varied, but ultimately a rewarding role that will provide an opportunity, for the right person, to become a key member of the team. A high degree of flexibility is required to meet the day-to-day challenges of the service. Excellent time management and communication skills are required as is a good sense of humour.

This role is a full-time position, working 37.5hrs per week Monday - Friday 9am-5pm.

We’re an NHS community and mental health provider Trust based in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. We deliver community and hospital-based care to improve people’s physical and mental health. We also provide specialist support to people with dementia or a learning disability.

We are a people organisation and people matter to us. As part of the team, you'll help support the health and wellbeing of the people who live and visit this beautiful part of the UK.

Over 4,000 people make up the Trust. This includes doctors, nurses, therapists, plus admin and support staff.

We work in people's homes, in community clinics and bases. Some staff work from one of our 13 community hospitals. Our aspiration is to have great people, provide great care, be a great place to work and a great partner.

Approximately 568,000 people live here. A third of people who live in Cornwall are supported by acute hospital services in Devon. As a result, we also work closely with our partners in Devon. In the summer, and during other holidays lots of people choose to visit the area. This increases the numbers of people who use our services.
