Trosolwg o'r swydd

Reporting directly to the Radiology Administration Manager, this role will provide direct support to the patient pathways through accurate and effective booking of diagnostic tests.

You will have experience of working within a busy administrative team that involves regular interactions with the public.  As part of our tight knit team, you will also be in close contact with our Radiographers and Consultant Radiologists, supporting them with managing their clinical lists effectively.  Although not essential, previous experience of this would be considered an advantage as the management of waiting lists and performance metrics will be a key consideration and expectation of the management of the booking team.

Patient care is at the forefront of everything that we do so the post holder will be expected to maintain high levels of communication with our patients, along with a listening and professional manner to deliver the best and timely service.

You will be expected to have a good understanding of the different radiology modalities that form the core of your role and understand the requirements and dependencies that feed into the booking of these tests.  As such, this role is like no other as you will have exposure to a wide range of radiology diagnostics with regular interactions with our clinical teams.

The detail above is not exhaustive and interested candidates are encouraged to read this in conjunction with the Job Description and Person Specification.
