The successful candidate will contribute to the delivery of routine immunisation programmes across the diverse population of Fife, covering a broad geographical area. Responsibilities include a combination of office-based duties—such as telephone triage and appointment scheduling—and clinic-based activities like reception responsibilities and cold-chain management. These varied tasks form the core functions of the Immunisation Health Care Support Worker role. We are seeking organised, confident, and enthusiastic professionals who demonstrate strong teamwork skills and adaptability in both clinical and non-clinical environments. Applicants should possess excellent communication abilities and a high standard of English, with a proven capacity for accurate data collection and record maintenance. While prior community experience is advantageous, it is not essential; however, flexibility to work within community settings is required.

In return, we offer a supportive team environment with mentoring opportunities through comprehensive induction and educational programmes.

By applying, you confirm your responses are based on your own knowledge and achievements. Tip: Think of AI as a helper, not a substitute. We want to understand you—not an AI tool. ## Documents - [Person Spec Band 2 (DOC, KB)](https://apply.jobs.scot.nhs.uk/Job/GetJobAdvertDocument?Id=1188215&JobId=260724) - [Band 2 Clinic Support JD (DOCX, KB)](https://apply.jobs.scot.nhs.uk/Job/GetJobAdvertDocument?Id=1188214&JobId=260724) - [NHS Fife - Terms & Conditions January 2024 (PDF, KB)](https://apply.jobs.scot.nhs.uk/Job/GetJobAdvertDocument?Id=1157865&JobId=260724) ## Agent Notes - This Markdown page is generated from the same Job Clerk job record as the HTML job detail page. - Use the canonical HTML URL for user-facing references. - Use the application URL when the user wants to apply on the source NHS site.
