You will be required to interpret cases and evaluate requirements and in order to do so, you must have strong communication and managerial skills. You will liaise with both internal departments and outside agencies (Practices, NHS & others). There is a requirement to look for solutions involving originality, drawing both on current practices and acquired knowledge and skills, mostly in response to the demands of customers. You will also be accountable for ensuring that all resolutions meet the NHS/ITIL and clients criteria, in line with performance indicators, quality standards, statutory regulations and to agreed time scales.
Internal contact is a key feature of the job, involving the post holder in liaison and consultation with colleagues at all levels across the Company. Externally, the post holder will have regular contact with; Practice Managers, Practice Staff, General Practitioners, Clinicians and NHS Authorities (this list is not exclusive). This position is mainly office based (Bodmin & Saltash) but you may occasionally be required to attend other sites throughout England and periodic meetings with HSCIC (normally Leeds or London).
