Job description

Overview

HMP Eastwood Park is an uncategorised women's prison that acts as a local/remand facility as well as a resettlement jail. It receives clients from nine counties, South Wales, and approximately 74 courts. In practice, this means it caters to the needs of women at all stages of the criminal justice process—from those on remand or newly sentenced, who may require stabilisation and detoxification from drugs or alcohol and/or may present with a complex and acute array of health and social care needs, through to more settled women who need assistance to plan a successful transfer at the end of their sentence back into the community.

About the Role

The role of Administrator is pivotal to the smooth running of the Wellbeing Team (Mental Health and Substance Misuse Psycho‑Social) at Eastwood Park, supporting the clinical staff with a wide range of tasks and duties. There is ample opportunity for training and professional development.

Key Responsibilities

• Maintain diaries and arrange meetings.
• Take formal minutes and keep appropriate records using up‑to‑date templates.
• Enter personal details from individuals into the electronic patient record system (System One/RIO).
• Meet deadlines, collate data, and maintain standards relating to administrative processes.
• Work effectively within a multidisciplinary team, sharing work streams where appropriate.
• Work independently, managing one’s own workload and being accountable for actions.
