Job description

Job responsibilities

The role offers excellent development opportunities for someone with strong numerical and organisational skills who is keen to learn, work collaboratively, and build a successful career in finance. Throughout your apprenticeship, you will be supported to develop the knowledge, skills and behaviours needed for a future career in NHS finance whilst contributing to the continued success of our subsidiary businesses.

As a Finance Assistant Apprentice, you will support the Subsidiary Finance Team in delivering a high-quality finance service across our subsidiary companies. You will gain hands-on experience in a wide range of financial activities, including supporting month-end processes, processing journals, managing supplier payments, raising invoices, investigating financial queries, maintaining financial records, and assisting with the production of management information. This role offers genuine variety and the opportunity to develop a broad understanding of how finance supports the wider organisation and its operational services.

Alongside your practical experience, you will undertake a Level 3 Finance Apprenticeship, studying towards the Association of Accounting Technicians (AAT) Level 3 qualification. You will be provided with dedicated study time and off-the-job training, ensuring you have the support needed to succeed both academically and professionally.

You will enjoy working as part of a team, take pride in producing accurate work, and be confident communicating with colleagues and asking questions to develop your knowledge and skills. Previous experience in an office, customer service or finance environment would be advantageous, although not essential.

This is a 22-month fixed-term position, aligned to the completion of the apprenticeship programme. Upon successful completion, you will have gained valuable experience, a recognised professional qualification, and a strong foundation for a future career in finance. The qualification also provides an excellent pathway to further study, including progression to AAT Level 4 and full AAT membership.

Due to the nature of the role, you will be organised, adaptable and able to manage competing priorities effectively. You will have strong numerical and analytical skills, excellent attention to detail, and a commitment to delivering high standards of work.

Job responsibilities

To perform operating department duties under the direction of the Theatre Team Lead and assist the Consultants and work colleagues in a professional manner to ensure the smooth running, efficiency and high standards of patient care and safety. To maintain professional and individual accountability.

Surgical First Assistants (SFA) practice as part of the surgical team, under the direct supervision of the operating surgeon. Scrub skills would be an advantage.

The post holder will perform and assist in all aspects of surgical procedures to an expert level in line with personal competencies. They will be a point of knowledge for junior team members and act as a mentor to health professionals who wish to gain competencies within the field of surgery. The post holder will work with consultants in delivering and maintaining a high standard of surgical care before, during and after surgery.

Spencer Private Hospitals undertake a multiplicity of surgical procedures which include but are not limited to general surgery, orthopaedics gynaecology, urology, ENT and colorectal patients.

KEY RELATIONSHIPS

The SFA is clinically responsible to the consultant surgeon - working under the direction and supervision of the consultant surgeon as a member of the surgical team.

The SFA is professionally accountable for their own actions and advanced practice and must comply with the local policies and procedures of the Trust and work within the boundaries of personal competencies and professional codes of performance, conduct and ethics.

Line Manager is the Theatre Sister

Work in close liaison with the Theatre staff and Consultant users

Liaison with staffing agencies and other hospital departments, wards, porters

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

To work within the recognised role and framework as published by the Royal College of Surgeons for Surgical Care Practitioners and adhere to their voluntary code of conduct (RCS The surgical team 2014)

To provide competent, skilled assistance to the operating surgeon during the intra-operative period, undertaking advanced practice and highly specialised skills required for a wide spectrum of cases.

To have specialist and expert knowledge of human anatomy/physiology in relation to the surgery being undertaken.

Support and promote the development of clinical capability within your team and its application in delivery of service outputs.

Utilise appropriate tools, routines and behaviours to coach and develop the capability of your team to do a little every day to improve and deliver exceptional care aligned to the Spencer Hospitals strategic priority domains.

You will play a pivotal role in ensuring the delivery of high-quality, patient-centred care and maintaining professional standards within the theatre setting. This is an exciting opportunity for a compassionate, forward-thinking, experienced SFA who is ready to be part of a skilled team, with a family atmosphere.

The role of the SFA should be undertaken by someone who has successfully completed a validated university programme of study that meets the nationally recognised standards (CODP 2018, AfPP 2016, CODP 2011), underpinning the knowledge and skills required for the role.

SFAs must ensure that they have appropriate indemnity cover.

The SFA scope of practice may be extended in line with service need

The SFAs name and designation must be recorded within the perioperative documentation.

The practitioner acting as Scrub Practitioner must be focused upon the management of the intraoperative care required by the patient and therefore must not assume the additional duties such as that of the SFA.

In the event, that an employer considers that a dual role is required in minor surgery, then this must only be undertaken by a registered practitioner and the decision should be endorsed by a policy that fully supports this practice and should also be based on a risk assessment of each situation to ensure patient safety.

The policy and risk assessment should identify the skills, knowledge and competencies required and the category of surgery and situations for which the employing organisation determines the dual role as acceptable. If this is not in place, as part of an effective clinical governance framework, then scrub practitioners must NOT undertake SFA duties in a dual role.
