Job description

A fantastic opportunity has arisen to join the Adult Community Services for a full time, Band 3 Administrator.

We are a multi-disciplinary team covering the whole of Salford facilitating clients' discharge back into their own home. Our vision is 'People are in the right place, at the right time - meaning nobody spends more nights away from home than is absolutely necessary.'

You will work closely with the Multi-Disciplinary Team supporting the development of the discharge services to deliver care closer to home. You will provide excellent administrative service, liaising regularly with external and internal partners. You will be an excellent team player and possess strong communication skills, with the ability to work on your own initiative to organise and prioritise your caseload amidst the demands of this diverse and varied role.

The ideal candidate will have administration experience, excellent communication skills, and be proficient with a wide variety of computer packages including Microsoft, EPR, and Medisec. Good knowledge of Patient Centre is required as managing referrals is a significant part of the role.

The Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust (NCA) provides hospital and integrated health and social care services to over one million people living across Greater Manchester. Our 20,000 colleagues care for people in hospital and in the community, working across Bury, Rochdale, Oldham, and Salford, to save and improve lives.

As a large NHS trust, we are committed to enhancing the health of our local population by delivering consistently high standards of care and working closely with local authorities and key partners. We believe in our power and potential to make a difference and we’re always looking for people who demonstrate our three core values - care, appreciate, and inspire – to join our team.

In return, we can offer you a job role with purpose and flexibility. The size and scale of the NCA means we can provide more challenge and opportunities so your career can always be moving in the right direction. By joining us, you can also access a competitive benefits package, including a fantastic annual leave allowance, flexible working opportunities, and protected hours for health and wellbeing activities, helping you to achieve more personal downtime and a better work-life balance.
