We make health happen
At New Victoria Hospital, we're committed to delivering exceptional healthcare experiences and making a positive difference to our patients every day.
As a Patient Services Advisor Team Leader, you'll play a vital role in shaping the patient journey, leading a team that provides a welcoming, efficient and professional service from first enquiry through to appointment attendance.
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced people leader who is passionate about customer service, continuous improvement and creating high-performing teams. You'll have the chance to influence how services are delivered, improve operational efficiency and ensure every patient receives the outstanding experience they deserve.
How You’ll Help Us Make Health Happen
You'll support your team to achieve and exceed performance expectations, ensuring high standards of quality, compliance and patient experience are maintained across all interactions.
While providing leadership and day-to-day operational support, you will also remain actively involved in frontline service delivery, handling inbound and outbound patient calls as part of the team.
Working closely with the Head of Patient Services, you'll use performance data, quality metrics and customer feedback to identify opportunities for improvement, drive efficiencies and support positive change. You'll also take ownership of key service areas, including oversight of Connected Care pathways, ensuring processes remain effective, patient-focused and aligned with business objectives.
