The post holder will have responsibility for ensuring patients are seen/treated in a timely manner and in accordance with waiting list principles and relevant target dates as detailed in the Trust Access Policy.

Successful candidate will ensure that all clinics are managed to maximum capacity, escalating shortfalls in line with agreed Standard Operating Procedures (SOP's), and will ensure all clinic activity is outcomed and actioned in a timely manner so as to prevent unnecessary open registrations.

Using the electronic patient record system known as HIVE, part of the role will be to review the patient task list and proactively manage patient pathways in line with national targets.

The post holder may be expected to contribute to the provision and smooth running of a front of house / reception service, ensuring customer service needs are met in full.

As part of our commitment to fairness, transparency, and personal integrity, we ask all applicants to ensure that their job applications reflect their own experiences, skills, and motivations. While AI tools can support spelling, grammar, or formatting, we expect that the content of your application, especially personal statements and responses to role specific questions is written by you. This helps us get to know the real you and ensures that our recruitment process remains equitable and meaningful for everyone.

As part of our commitment to safeguarding patients and staff, many roles at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) require a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. This is a standard process across the NHS and helps us ensure a safe environment for everyone.

A DBS check is a background check that reveals any criminal convictions, cautions, reprimands, or warnings. The level of check required depends on the role:

• Standard DBS:
  Checks for spent and unspent convictions, cautions, reprimands, and final warnings.
• Enhanced DBS:
  Includes the above, plus any additional information held by local police that's considered relevant to the role.
• Enhanced with Barred Lists:
  Includes all of the above, plus checks against the children's and/or adults' barred lists.

Most roles involving direct patient contact, working with children or vulnerable adults, or access to sensitive information will require a DBS check. The job advert and recruitment team will let you know if this applies to your role.

At Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT), roles that require a DBS check are subject to a cost recovery policy. This means that the cost of submitting and processing a DBS application if you are successful and join us, will be deducted from your salary within the first three months of employment. If, however, you withdraw from a conditional offer after the DBS process has begun, you will still be liable for the cost incurred.
