An exciting opportunity has arisen to work within the Acute Services Division Medical Directorate Admin Team, providing a comprehensive secretarial and administrative service to our Service Managers. You should have experience of working in a busy office environment, with significant experience in a secretarial and administrative post, providing a dedicated service to an individual or team. Alongside proven administrative and secretarial experience you should possess excellent communication, organisational and problem solving skills. You should have a working knowledge of all Microsoft packages (Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook). Knowledge and understanding of common office practices, including minute taking and audio/copy typing are essential; knowledge of NHS procedures and practices or experience in a public sector environment would be an advantage. You are required to be a flexible and motivated individual, with the ability to work on your own or as part of a team. A level of English language competency and communication skills necessary to perform this role safely and effectively is also required. For informal enquiries please contact Kerry Thomson, Admin & Secretarial Services Manager on 01592 643355 extension 21681 NHS Scotland is reducing their full-time working week from 37.5 to 37 hours per week from 1 April 2024 but with no change in pay. This reduction will also be applied pro rata for part time staff. Your offer/contract of employment will therefore reflect the new working hours. However, as not all service areas will be able to adopt the 37 hour working week immediately from 1 April 2024, you may be required to work up to an additional 30 minutes per week for a temporary period for which you would be paid until the service you are working in changes rosters or working patterns to accommodate the new reduced working week.
