We are a small but growing service and have a strong focus on staff wellbeing. You will be the main point of contact for our inpatient and outpatient services and will provide administrative support to the therapists and Service Lead to assist in the effective performance of their duties. You will be responsible for booking outpatients into our videofluoroscopy and Ear, Nose and Throat clinics and supporting our inpatient services across the organisation.
