Job Description

Kintbury and Woolton Hill Surgery

If you have excellent communication skills and are a people person, you may be just the sort of person we are looking for to join our busy Medical Reception team, working part-time, up to 30 hours per week (plus some occasional holiday/ sickness cover).

Working on the surgery's front desk, you will be the first point of contact for our patients, signposting them to the most appropriate clinician or source of help for advice, greeting patients, taking calls, making patient appointments and issuing prescriptions.

We aim to provide a friendly, caring environment for our patients, the ethos for which extends to our dedicated staff, who all support each other whilst remaining committed to making a real difference for patient outcomes. This is evidenced through the positive feedback and compliments we receive as a surgery and for which we are very proud.

This is a busy and fulfilling job and requires a flexible mindset, a welcoming and empathetic team spirit and a 'can-do' attitude. Operating over two surgeries on the outskirts of Newbury, within 15 minutes' drive of each other, this rewarding part-time position will be based over both practices.

Our ideal candidates will be able to demonstrate that they have the required skills for the role and whilst experience as a Receptionist in a GP Surgery is desirable, training will be given to the right persons. All new staff follow a comprehensive minimum two-week Induction program and shadow experienced staff their first couple of weeks. We encourage professional development and learning, the majority of which is undertaken online through e-Learning.

Morning shifts commence 8:00 until 13:30, afternoon shifts 13:30 to 18:30 with the option to cover some late evening surgeries (up to 20:00) plus working extra hours to cover annual leave and other absences and occasional Saturday mornings for extended surgeries.

Can offer up to 30 hours per week. Various shifts available. To work at Kintbury Surgery AND Woolton Hill Surgery.

Please note that if you are currently a registered patient at the practice, and successfully recruited to this role, we would ask you to register at another local practice as per our practice policy.
