Job Description

The Medical Education Department is responsible for the provision and quality control of undergraduate and postgraduate medical education to meet national requirements for training, with the wider purpose of improving standards of patient care.



We are looking to appoint an experienced and motivated administrator to work within the Postgraduate Medical Education Team. The post holder will support the senior leadership team, tutors, specialist leads, and administration team in the delivery of postgraduate medical education across Sussex, with specific responsibility for the Brighton & Hove area.



This role is suitable for hybrid working once a satisfactory induction and training period has been completed. Office-based days will mainly be worked at Sussex Education Centre in Hove, but as the team covers all of Sussex, cross-site travel will be a requirement for attending meetings and supporting events. Office-based days must include a Wednesday, but some flexibility will be required around induction periods to meet the needs of the service.



We are looking for someone with proven administrative experience, excellent organisational skills, a collaborative, can-do approach, and the ability to work with different IT systems and applications, including online meeting platforms. The post holder must be able to work with a diverse range of colleagues, utilising good interpersonal and communication skills.



A full induction to medical education and the Trust will be provided and support will be readily available from managers and the wider team. Following appropriate training and guidance, it is anticipated that the post holder will be able to assume responsibility for their workload with minimal supervision.



A consistent and regular on-site presence is required to support team working and business needs, such as the facilitation of induction and teaching programmes, and to maintain a welcoming and supportive environment for doctors who may require assistance from the team.
