You will answer queries from the public and Health Practitioners. You'll turn up each day to deliver a consistent and positive experience for our community.
You'll be part of a team of professionals who will help you to be the best you can be. At the end of each day, you'll go home knowing you've made a genuine difference to our community. We also have great flexible working options available which include being able to split your work time between the office and home.
This role is a great introduction to the wider Health Sector for those interested in a career in health.
