Executive Assistant London
Job description
At Accurx, we're on a mission to make patients healthier and healthcare staff happier.
Who are Accurx?
We're a fast-growing health technology company which makes it easier for patients and healthcare teams to communicate.
Accurx is where conversations happen with and about patients. Our software helps doctors, nurses, pharmacists and administrators and other professionals to seamlessly connect with both patients and each other.
Our mission is simple: everything we do is to make patients healthier and healthcare staff happier. Today, Accurx is used in 98% of GP practices nationwide and every day more healthcare professionals are using our software in hospitals, pharmacies, care homes and the community.
We're passionate about staying close to our users, which is why everyone at Accurx visits a GP practice at least twice a quarter to understand how a practice runs, the difficulties they face with technologies and how we can help.
Although we've initially tackled the UK healthcare system, we have big ambitions to improve healthcare systems across the world in the future. If you want to hear from some of our Accufolk about what it's like to work for us, take a look at a video from our 2022 summer conference!
Life as an Executive Assistant at Accurx
As an EA, you will be supporting the team at Accurx to deliver as much to the health system as possible. This is a busy, fast paced role, with different problems to solve every day.
You'll support up to three members of our executive team with diary management, scheduling meetings, and ensuring their day runs smoothly. You'll help manage inboxes, screen emails, and respond to and redirect queries.
You'll assist with preparation of materials for meetings, taking minutes where required and following up on any action items.
You'll lead on some of our events, both internal and external. This is done on a rota basis with the rest of the Assistant team.
You'll also have the opportunity to get involved in lots of ad hoc projects. Examples in the past have included organising our summer conference, implementing mental health first aid training and introducing coaching to our senior leadership team, with many possible future projects in the pipeline.
Our assistant team is growing quickly at Accurx, and you'll get to be an integral part of the team, helping to shape our processes, ways of working, and how we celebrate each other.
As part of Workplace Operations, you will work alongside the Assistants and Workplace teams to create a collaborative and energising working environment for the whole team.
