Under the supervision of the Clinical Team Lead, the post holder will be responsible for the management of the majority of administrative duties for our small, friendly, physiotherapy department.

Although this is predominantly an administrative role , there is also a clinical element to this post. (Approximately 80% administrative duties and 20% clinical). After appropriate training, the candidate will be required to assist physiotherapists in the assessment and treatment of patients.
