The department, which is located at Ipswich Hospital, is looking for a genuinely fast learner who can work calmly and efficiently, follow processes accurately, has excellent people skills, good time management skills, and can re-prioritise their workload as task priorities change throughout a busy working day.

The successful applicant will need to be methodical, careful, a good communicator, extremely well organised, and be able to retain information/instructions and have a proactive approach to administrative and technical processes. Full training will be given but good computer literacy is a must. A basic knowledge of photocopying, printing files and spreadsheet entry would be an advantage, as would good manual dexterity.
