Audio Typist, Haematology Department, 30hrs (part-time)
Band 3 (£29,103-£31,409)
The Medical Secretarial Service have a vacancy for a part-time Audio Typist to join the Haematology Team at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary.
The Post
The post holder will work as part of the Medical Secretary Team in the Haematology Department at ARI to provide audio-typing support to a large team of Consultant Surgeons and their medical and nursing staff.
This is a very busy but rewarding post in a fast-paced specialty with a high volume of cancer patients. The Audio Typist role requires accurate and fast audio transcription of clinical dictation.
Hours of work are negotiable with the successful candidate between the hours of 8am and 5pm Monday to Friday. The post is part-time at 30 hours per week.
What We Love To See
The ideal candidate should have previous audio typing experience or experience in a similar role. You should have excellent organisational skills. The ability to touch type with experience of transcription of documents from audio files is also essential. Knowledge of medical terminology and NHS experience in an administrative role would be advantageous, but not essential.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
