Based in Watling Street Practice @ Shenley Church, this is a exciting opportunity for a reliable and friendly receptionist to join our team; initially on a 3 month fixed term basis, in which time there will be a review that may lead to a permanent role.
Please note that we plan to hold interviews during the week commencing August 18th, with a view to someone starting as early as August 26th.
If you have excellent communication skills and thrive in a fast-paced environment, we’d love to hear from you.

JOB SUMMARY

As a Medical Receptionist working in Primary Care, you will be the face of the practice; together with your colleagues you will be supporting our patients, and the clinical teams that care for them.
As the first point of contact for patients, you will handle enquiries with professionalism and empathy. You will also be responsible for administrative duties such as appointment scheduling and maintaining patient records.
The role is varied - no two calls are the same - and you will be responsible for making sure patients are dealt with in an efficient and friendly manner.
Your primary place of work will be Watling Street Practice @ Shenley Church End, but you may be expected to work from our Stony Stratford and Great Holm sites from time to time.
