This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced HCA who enjoys working in a busy primary care environment and is confident delivering a range of clinical services.
The ideal candidate will be organised, reliable, proactive and able to work independently while supporting colleagues across the practice. A professional, compassionate approach to patient care is essential.
Working Hours
The preferred working pattern for a 29 hour working week is:
- Wednesday: 7:30 am 4:00 pm (30-minute lunch break)
- Thursday: 7:30 am 4:00 pm (30-minute lunch break)
- Friday: 7:30 am 4:00 pm (30-minute lunch break)
We can offer some flexibility around the working pattern/hours; however, working full days on Thursdays and Fridays is essential. Flexibility is also required to meet the changing demands of a busy GP surgery.
Please note: the final working pattern and paid hours will be confirmed with the successful candidate.
