The postholder will join a high performing administration team maintaining all patient pathways within the Enfield Community Services – School‑Age Speech & Language Therapies team, working alongside our Consultant Community Paediatricians, Community Nursing team, Speech & Language Therapists, and support staff from across the Health Unit. The postholder is responsible for ensuring the safe and efficient management of the patient throughout their pathway; giving the patient a single point of contact for their appointments, ensuring the patients and carer experience is central to every stage of the patient journey, and ensuring potential breaches of RTT (referral to treatment) waiting times targets are avoided or escalated to the relevant manager.

The postholder will proactively manage and track the progress of all referrals to ensure each stage of the pathway is fully planned and booked, whilst also working with colleagues throughout the Trust to ensure waiting time targets are achieved. They will be required to assist in the data quality and validation, ensuring all patients have recorded pathway start dates, and support the management team to identify areas that require pathway improvements.
