Job Description

Job responsibilities

Employed Staff - Training Appraisal and Reception management support

You will arrange recruitment of receptionists and administrators: in liaison with the Practice Manager you will manage the process from placing job adverts, selection, interview through to appointment.

You will ensure the induction training, ongoing training, assessment and development reviews to agreed standards for new staff is well planned and is carried out effectively (you will deliver some of this yourself and build a structure involving other members of the team).

You will manage an annual appraisal process for all administrative staff.

You will encourage and facilitate staff development.

You will help ensure administrative duties are carried out efficiently within the practice according to the existing policies and protocols and that all team members are aware of their responsibilities.

You will help identify processes that require re-design and assist in any process to implement new ways of working where appropriate.

You will support the Reception Manager in creating and operating a regular training programme for the reception team to ensure a high-quality service, e.g., in customer care skills, administrative tasks, or implementation of new policies.

You will support the Reception Manager in monitoring team and individual performance, report to the Practice Manager, and make suggestions for improvements.

You will support the Reception Manager to help ensure daily administrative tasks and rotas (both normal working hours and enhanced access rotas) are working appropriately and smoothly. This includes covering reception in times of staff shortages, to allow for smooth running of the practice.

You will liaise with the Practice Manager and Reception Manager regarding staffing levels, skill-mix, deployment of staff, and forward planning.

You will carry out the initial investigation and collect any evidence such as phone recordings and any hand-written notes, so whoever responds has the required information available. You will respond to certain complaints.

You will manage the Patient Participation Group and be a central point of reference for patients.

You will help with the running of any other clinical patient groups.

You will help ensure patient communication is carried out efficiently and politely and that the practice represents itself well to patients at every level of interaction (on the phone, online, in the building).

You will monitor and report on the various practice work-streams to ensure the practice is functioning optimally at all times and backlogs do not occur.

You will help ensure the clinical and administrative targets are met to provide high-quality care to patients and preserve income streams.

Where administrative systems have been identified as being sub-optimal for patient services, you will try to find better, more efficient ways to work.
