Medical Pa

Chelsea, United Kingdom The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust Full time

This post is based cross site. The Medical P.A. role provides an invaluable patient focused service, working within the clinical units of the hospital for consultant surgeons and physicians. The main responsibilities will be processing and typing referrals to other organisations, dealing with patient queries and providing a high quality secretarial, administration service at a leading Cancer Centre which prides itself on clinical excellence.

Due to the nature of the role, we are looking for a dependable and highly adaptable individual who is able to work independently and has the ability to fit in quickly as part of a team.

Substantial experience working as a secretary or PA in a relevant medical setting is required for this post. Excellent audio and typing skills and knowledge of medical terminology are essential.

The role of the Medical P.A. is key to the efficient management of the consultant firm. Patient access to healthcare professionals and subsequent treatment planning in the specialist hospital setting relies upon well-co-ordinated organisational and administrative support. The role of the Medical P.A. has been introduced at the Trust to strengthen the secretarial service, and this job description outlines the responsibilities that the post is likely to encompass. However, a number of the posts differ in their emphasis depending upon the size of the consultant’s clinical practice and administrative team, and whether he / she also has an Administrative P.A. and / or a Medical Secretary(s).

The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust is a world-leading cancer centre. Our role is to offer our patients the best cancer care available anywhere in the world, and to continue to make a global contribution to finding better ways of diagnosing and treating cancer. We employ over 3,900 staff in a diverse range of careers including nursing, medical, science, radiography, pharmacy, occupational therapy, finance and administrative services. We have two hospitals - one in Chelsea, London, and one in Sutton, Surrey - as well as a Medical Daycare Unit in Kingston Hospital

At The Royal Marsden, we deal with cancer every day, so we understand how valuable life is. When people entrust their lives to us, they have the right to demand the very best. That's why the pursuit of excellence lies at the heart of everything we do.

At the heart of the hospital is our dedicated team. We offer a stimulating and dynamic working environment, a wide range of staff benefits and learning and development opportunities. We are looking for employees who aspire to excellence, share our values and can play a crucial role in our on-going achievements.

The difference between the role of a Medical P.A. and that of a Medical Secretary is the level of responsibility. To undertake a Medical P.A. position, the post holder will need to either:
Be the only secretarial member of staff working for the consultant, and hence will be required to cover a wide range of duties incorporating diary management and the co-ordination of all clinical / administrative / academic work.

Take the lead role in the organisation of a consultant’s clinical practice (including the line management of other secretarial staff) where the size of the consultant’s practice justifies more than one member of staff to support it.

The post holder will be responsible for the provision of a comprehensive Medical P.A. service. He/she will liaise with all colleagues within the multidisciplinary team, and with internal departments and external agencies to ensure the continuity of patient treatment.

This is a general job description, which may be developed over time to meet the specific needs of the Clinical Unit, in conjunction with the post holder.
