Nursing Secretary and Training Coordinator

It's a skill to be a good secretary. The typing skills need to be on-point. Your organisation levels need to be well, organised. Word processing - check. Creating presentations - check. Minute-taking - sorted.

If that all sounds like something you can do without breaking a sweat, then you're going to love this role.

Its more than being a secretary. Add in a sprinkle of coordinating training programmes, add a touch of general admin work, and you've got yourself a fun, social and engaging role where you'll be an integral part of the team and a main touchpoint for nursing staff.

Not to mention you'll be doing it at a mental health hospital, where you'll be contributing towards the care of people and have the added satisfaction of knowing you're helping to make a difference.
