General Practice Assistant

We have recently created a new General Practice Assistant Team to support the practice in delivering excellent patient care by providing direct administrative support to our GPs. A developing team who are willing to deliver as much additional support to our GPs as, where and when they require it. You will work with an assigned group of GPs, supporting them with:

• Task management
• Liaison with other agencies
• Arranging, managing and minuting meetings
• Planning and diary management
• Quality improvement activities
• Patient care and patient appointments
This is an exciting opportunity to shape a new role which will lead directly to an improved patient experience. If you share our vision of a happy and healthy Holderness and are looking for a new challenge, we would love to hear from you., Your role will focus on supporting an assigned group of GPs to work as efficiently as possible, streamlining the way we do things in the practice. The administrative support you provide will support our GPs to spend less time on paperwork and organisation and more time with patients. To do this role successfully you will need to feel comfortable working in a busy and demanding environment, be computer literate (and adapt well to using new technology) and have excellent communication and administrative skills.

You will have excellent negotiation skills and be confident managing your own workload. Our ideal candidate will have experience of working in a health or social care setting and a deep understanding of patient care needs. We are also interested in hearing from people from a wide range of backgrounds who can demonstrate sound administrative skills and experience of delivering high quality customer or patient care.

We are a large rural practice with over 35,000 patients. As a single-practice Primary Care Network, we have a wonderful opportunity to transform care for our patients. We operate from 7 locations across Holderness and you must also be willing to travel between sites as necessary. Our hard-working and dedicated team includes 23 GPs, an extensive multi-disciplinary team of healthcare professionals and a great patient services and administration team.

We offer a welcoming practice environment, 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays and access to the NHS pension scheme, £11.44 to £12.38 an hour In line with Holderness Health Pay Policy
