administrative assistant Glasgow, Scotland
Job description
An exciting opportunity has arisen for Administrators to join the new National Diabetes Closed Loop Systems (CLS) Onboarding Team as part of the Innovation Team within the Centre for Sustainable Delivery (CfSD) at NHS Golden Jubilee.
Are you passionate about making a difference in patients' lives? Are you eager to contribute to their training and support, enabling them to embrace innovative technologies and enhance their quality of life? If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you!
A CLS device involves an insulin pump automating insulin delivery based on real-time continuous glucose monitor (CGM) measurements. This can enhance quality of life and improve diabetes control.
An innovative National Diabetes Closed Loop System Onboarding Programme will be developed and delivered by the new national team. The programme will be delivered using a blend of virtual and remote training and education sessions and individual calls and check-ins with participants. Coordination and distribution of CLS devices will be carried out by the national team. The aim is to improve the accessibility of diabetes CLS devices across Scotland.
We are seeking enthusiastic and dedicated Administrators to join our new dynamic team in delivering this programme. As an Administrator, you will play a crucial role in supporting the efficient and effective coordination and delivery of the CLS onboarding programme for individuals with Type 1 diabetes.
In this role, you will be responsible for providing comprehensive administrative support to the team, maintaining accurate records, coordinating communication, and ensuring the smooth operation of the onboarding process. You will work closely with healthcare professionals, participants of the programme, and external stakeholders to ensure a seamless and positive experience for all participants.
Most administrative tasks are anticipated to be conducted remotely, utilising digital platforms and communication tools. However, there may be occasions where in-person support is required in specific localities as part of the programme.
If you are an organised, proactive individual with excellent communication and administrative skills, and are excited about being part of a transformative healthcare initiative, we would love to hear from you.
We offer a supportive and dynamic work environment where your skills will have a significant impact on improving access to diabetes CLS throughout Scotland. This role provides a unique opportunity for individuals residing anywhere in Scotland to contribute to this national initiative. Hot desk office accommodation is available at the Golden Jubilee University National Hospital; however, we anticipate that the post holder(s) will primarily work from home. Some travel for in-person meetings will be required by the post holder(s). Consideration to the post holder(s) location and a team approach will be taken when planning activity requiring the need for travel.
This is a rare opportunity to engage in a high-profile area of work that requires dedicated, compassionate, and value-driven individuals who will work as part of a team to confidently assist with this National Diabetes CLS Onboarding Programme that will deliver measurable improvements in the health and wellbeing of people with Type 1 diabetes across all of Scotland. You will work as part of an exciting new team and will have the opportunity to develop your skills.
