- Process patient payments and complete end-of-day cash and transaction reconciliation.
- Coordinate patient visits to minimise delays and ensure relevant information and documentation is available.
- Handle patient, visitor and consultant requests and enquiries promptly, escalating complaints or issues where appropriate.
- Maintain a clean, safe and professional reception environment, ensuring confidentiality and high standards of personal presentation.
- Work flexibly as part of the Front of House team, supporting colleagues and taking on additional duties as required.

Essential
- GCSE English or equivalent.
- Experience in a customer-facing reception or customer service role.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
- Good IT and administrative skills, with strong attention to detail.
- Calm, organised and adaptable, with the ability to multitask and work under pressure.
- Professional, confident and well-presented.
- Ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team.
- Reliable, trustworthy and committed to providing excellent patient service.
