An opportunity has arisen for an individual to join our team to provide a key role in supporting the management of our waiting lists, theatre activity and related matters within the Trauma and Orthopaedic Department.

You should have proven experience working in a team with an understanding of waiting lists ideally in a healthcare setting.

You will be required to comply with the Code of Conduct for Healthcare Support Workers in Scotland throughout your employment.
