Job summary
We are looking for an experienced Medical PA to join our Neuro-Oncology team.

For further information please refer to the job description and personal specification
The difference between the role of a Medical P.A. and that of a Medical Secretary is the level of responsibility. To undertake a Medical P.A. position, the post holder will need to either:
1. Be the only secretarial member of staff working for the consultant, and hence will be required to cover a wide range of duties incorporating diary management and the co-ordination of all clinical / administrative / academic work.
Or:
2. Take the lead role in the organisation of a consultants clinical practice (including the line management of other secretarial staff) where the size of the consultants practice justifies more than one member of staff to support it.
The post holder will be responsible for the provision of a comprehensive Medical P.A. service. He/she will liaise with all colleagues within the multidisciplinary team, and with internal departments and external agencies to ensure the continuity of patient treatment.
This is a general job description, which may be developed over time to meet the specific needs of the Clinical Unit, in conjunction with the post holder.
