Jobbeschreibung

Behind every urgent care shift is someone making sure patients are supported, clinicians can reach them safely, and services keep moving. At IC24, our Driver Receptionists are a vital part of how out-of-hours care is delivered. They are often the first-person patients see, the person keeping clinics running smoothly, and the person supporting clinicians to reach patients who need urgent care at home. We're looking for people who are calm under pressure, compassionate with patients, and confident working in a fast-paced environment where no two shifts are the same. This role combines reception and driving responsibilities across our Out of Hours services. One moment, you could be welcoming a patient into the service and helping them feel reassured during a stressful situation. The next, you could be safely transporting a clinician to a home visit so care can be delivered where it's needed most. It's a practical, people-focused role with real variety and real impact.

What you'll focus on

• Supporting patients at the front desk. You'll welcome patients professionally and compassionately, maintaining confidentiality and helping people feel supported during what can often be an anxious time.
• Keeping services running smoothly. You'll manage appointment bookings, comfort calls and patient queries, while maintaining accurate records and ensuring effective communication between operational bases and contact centres.
• Providing safe transport for clinicians. You'll carry out vehicle and equipment checks before safely transporting clinicians to home visits across the region. In some situations, you may accompany clinicians into patient homes.
• Working confidently with systems and processes. You'll use IT systems to manage patient information accurately and support the smooth coordination of urgent care services.
• Responding to changing demands. Out-of-hours services can be unpredictable, so you'll need to adapt quickly, stay organised, and work calmly under pressure.
• The environment you'll work in. IC24's Out of Hours services operate evenings, overnights, weekends and bank holidays - the times when patients often need urgent support most. This is a bank role offering flexible shifts across a range of operational bases, including Thurrock, Southend, Basildon and Broomfield (Chelmsford). Flexibility to support other locations when required is essential. You'll be part of a supportive team environment where every role contributes directly to patient care and service delivery.

You don't need previous healthcare experience to succeed here - but your attitude and approach matter.

You're likely someone who:

• Communicates confidently and compassionately with patients and colleagues
• Is calm, reliable and organised under pressure
• Enjoys variety and working in a fast-paced environment
• Is comfortable using IT systems and keeping accurate records
• Understands the importance of confidentiality and patient care
• Works well as part of a team and takes initiative when needed

Most importantly, you recognise that even small actions can make a big difference to someone accessing urgent care.

We are Integrated Care 24 (IC24), the leading not for profit Social Enterprise providing innovative and patient focused primary care services.
