Job summary

A Care Navigator is a very special person! They are the first port of call for patients and they respond to requests for GP appointments, made by patients either on the phone or in person. With training and support, they will triage the patient non-clinically, and signpost to the appropriate service or person, which may not necessarily be the GP. They will work in a reception hub alongside their colleagues (a team of 12) or on front desk reception.

We are looking for someone who is flexible enough to cover early starts (8am) and late finishes (6.30pm) across the week over 24 to 30 hours including a Monday, Tuesday and Thursday at least.

Salary starts at £13.00 per hour with an increase after you pass probation.

Main duties of the job

This is a challenging but very satisfying role.

Patients rely on our care navigators to listen, advise and point them in the right direction. Often, patients themselves do not know what they need in terms of their health and it is up to a trained navigator to support them. Our team prides itself on the care and customer service we offer. Our access to appointments is excellent and prompt, but we rely on our navigators to ensure that the right person is seen at the right time by the right clinician (not necessarily the doctor!) This takes tact and diplomacy as well as patience.
