The post
The post holder will work alongside the Medical Secretaries in the Gynaecology Department at ARI to provide secretarial and administrative support to a team of Consultants and their medical and nursing staff.

The Medical Secretarial Service provides secretarial and administration support to medical, surgical, and clinical teams across the acute sector of NHS Grampian. The team consists of Medical Secretaries, Audio Typists, Administrators, Filing Clerks, Receptionists, Trainers, PAs, and the Management Team.
There are opportunities for expansion and progression within the Medical Secretarial Service, including expanding your knowledge in to various other medical, surgical, and clinical services, or over time developing in to supervisory, training, or management roles.
Diversity and inclusion
We are focused on hiring the very best talent available, and actively encourage applications from candidates of all background and aim to ensure everyone is treated fairly, with respect, and has a positive recruitment experience regardless of the outcome.
