Administrative Officer
An opportunity has arisen for a full-time (37.5 hours per week) permanent Band 3 administrator to join our developing team in North Cumbria as a Administrative Officer. This is a county-wide service and therefore the base is flexible which will be discussed at interview (Beacon Unit, Penrith, Brookside Centre, Wigton or Carleton Clinic Carlisle).
We are seeking someone who has an interest in supporting our expanding clinical team, the post holder will need to have experience of working in a similar environment and previous secretarial experience is essential due to the demands of the role.
This post could provide an ideal development opportunity for an existing Band 2 or 3 looking to develop further administrative skills working autonomously within an exciting and developing service. The post will provide training and development opportunities.
Full support will be provided by an experienced Pathway Coordinator/Administration Manager as well as the service leads.
