Kirkwall, United Kingdom NHS Scotland Full time

**Personal Assistant - Dental**

**Primary Care**

**The Balfour**

**Band 4 £29,102 - £31,523 Distant Islands Allowance pro rata**

**Full Time 37 Hours per week**

**Fixed term for 9 months**

An exciting opportunity has arisen within NHS Orkney’s Primary Care Department for a Personal Assistant to join our team.

The post holder will provide a high level of personal assistant support to the Director of Dentistry along with providing a comprehensive administrative support to the Dental department. Ensuring the delivery of an effective, efficient and quality service at all times.

You will be required to have a recognised qualification in Administration equivalent to HNC in Business Administration, or SVQ in Administration at Level 3, or significant relevant equivalent practical experience.

The post holder will be conversant with office procedures and be experienced in the use of Microsoft Office packages, have excellent communication and organisational skills, and be able to handle a diverse workload.
- Starting from 1 April 2024, the working week for NHS Agenda for Change workers in Scotland will be reduced. Full-time hours will be reduced from 37.5 to 37 hours, and part-time staff will get a pro-rata reduction in their working hours without losing any earnings.

Although NHS Orkney will implement this change, it may not be possible to transition fully from 1 April. Therefore, there may be some areas in the organisation where implementation may take longer. If the department cannot safely accommodate the reduced hours from 1st April, you may be required to work 37.5 hours per week (pro rata for part-time staff) until the department can meet the requirements without impacting patient safety. Of course, you will be remunerated accordingly.

NHS Orkney is committed to fully implementing the 37-hour working week across all areas as soon as it is safe to do so.
