Lynch Syndrome Tracker / Navigator

The purpose of this role is to provide support in the improvement of the pathway for patients referred with suspected Lynch Syndrome , working on your own initiative using knowledge, skills and experience to manage and prioritise workload independently in accordance with operational standards and protocols.
A large part of the role is providing administration and coordination support to patients, families, consultants, cancer nurse specialists and other staff involved in the Lynch Syndrome pathway.

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a motivated and enthusiastic individual to support the Cancer Services Division, specifically as a Lynch Syndrome Navigator on an 12 month basis for 22.5 hours per week.
We are looking for an individual who will be highly motivated, organised and self-sufficient, with the ability to manage their own workload and be flexible and adaptable to fulfil the duties within the role. The individual must also have the ability to work well under pressure, enjoy analysing data and performing general admin duties, and have the desire to provide a first class service for patients and the clinical teams.
In return this post will offer excellent development opportunities and the option to take part in further administration and academic qualifications.
Previous experience of working within a Healthcare environment is desirable but not essential.

We are a progressive and forward looking trust with ambitious plans to improve quality and integrate patient pathways through close collaborative working with our partners to deliver the quality of care we'd want for our family and friends.
