We are looking for a highly motivated and enthusiastic administrator to join our friendly admin team, who provide administrative support to the North Bristol Assessment & Recovery Team.

The role will involve working with the Community Mental Health Team based in North Bristol, a vibrant base with a gym and a café in the heart of Southmead. Therefore, it is important that you have an interest in working in mental health services and empathy with people who experience mental health problems.

You will need a degree of resilience, as you may be the first point of contact for service users and carers who may be distressed, though full support is given by AWP through peer support, regular formal supervision and access to the Employee Assist programme.

Do you consider yourself a team player, with the ability to remain calm in challenging situations, who has a friendly and positive nature, with good communication skills, then this could be the job opportunity for you!

The role will be based at The Greenway Centre in Southmead, Bristol.

Hours of work are Monday – Friday 9.00 – 5.00pm, mostly office based, but some home working can be offered.

If enjoy working in a busy but friendly team, then we would like to hear from you.
