Term: Permanent

Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where exceptional customer service meets meticulous co‑ordination?

If you enjoy building relationships, solving problems and supporting patients through every step of their healthcare journey, we'd love to hear from you.

We are also particularly interested in candidates who can speak Arabic, although not essential.

A little about the role

You’ll be co‑ordinating the end‑to‑end journey for our international patients, managing referrals, appointments, financial authorisations, and communications with consultants, insurers, and foreign embassies.

Providing exceptional customer service at every stage, you’ll ensure a seamless experience while maintaining accurate records and working closely with teams across the hospital.

• What you’ll be doing

• Act as the main point of contact for patients, families, consultants, insurers, government sponsors and internal teams, delivering an exceptional level of customer service.
• Manage referrals, patient registrations, appointments and clinical records, ensuring information is accurate, confidential and up to date.
• Secure financial authorisations (LOGs/GOPs), prepare treatment estimates and liaise with insurers, embassies and government payors to ensure funding is in place.
• Co-ordinate admissions, discharge arrangements and complex patient pathways, including VIP cases and repatriation where required.
• Provide clear guidance to patients and families on treatment pathways, financial processes and hospital services, including interpreting support where appropriate.
• Work closely with consultants, finance and clinical teams to resolve queries, support billing processes and ensure a seamless patient experience.
• Respond to patient concerns and complaints professionally, escalating where appropriate and helping to improve service delivery.
• Maintain accurate documentation across CRM and clinical systems while ensuring compliance with data protection and confidentiality requirements.
• Contribute to continuous improvement by identifying process enhancements, supporting new team members and representing the International Office in meetings when required.
• Support the wider International Office with additional administrative and operational tasks to ensure an efficient, high‑quality service.
• For Arabic speaking candidates you will occasionally be required to translate for a patient during their appointments.
• What we’re looking for
• Previous experience in international patient coordination, healthcare administration or a similar customer‑focused environment.
• Strong understanding of patient referrals, financial authorisations (LOGs/GOPs) and healthcare billing processes.
• Excellent organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast‑paced environment.
• Outstanding communication and relationship‑building skills, with the confidence to work with consultants, insurers, government sponsors and high‑net‑worth clients.
• Experience using CRM or patient administration systems (e. g. Meditech), together with good Microsoft Office skills, including Outlook, Word, Excel and Share Point.
• A proactive, flexible approach with excellent attention to detail and the ability to solve problems independently.
• Professional, diplomatic and discreet, with strong cultural awareness and a commitment to exceptional customer service.
• Experience supporting colleagues, mentoring others or contributing to process improvements would be advantageous.
• Fluency in Arabic highly desirable.
