Linen Services Assistant Manager
Sheffield Teaching Hospitals currently has an opening for a Linen Services Assistant Manager in the Laundry at the Northern General Hospital in Sheffield. As an aspiring or experienced leader with a background in managing staff in a target driven production environment, the Assistant Manager role represents a real opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to one of the country’s most cherished institutions. The post requires dedication and commitment to the service and ultimately the patients in the Sheffield and surrounding areas.
Successful candidates will need to be proactive and agile in their approach to managing the day to day demands as no two days are alike. The staff within the Laundry are expected to meet hourly production targets as well as being comfortable handling used, hospital linen, with some vaccinations required for this part of the process. As the Assistant Manager there would be an expectation of leading by example when needed.
