Job overview

Step into a dynamic and rewarding role at the heart of patient care as a Senior Ward Administrator. In this fast-paced position, you’ll be a vital part of the ward team, driving efficiency and supporting clinical staff to deliver outstanding care every day. Working closely with Ward Sisters, Charge Nurses, and the wider team, you’ll help keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes—making a real difference to both staff and patients.

From coordinating staff rotas and managing workforce data to organising training, meetings, and key reports, no two days are the same. You’ll take ownership of essential administrative processes, contribute to service improvements, and play a key role in maintaining high standards across the ward. Your ability to stay organised, communicate effectively, and manage competing priorities will be crucial in this varied and engaging role.

If you’re proactive, detail-oriented, and passionate about supporting healthcare teams, this is an exciting opportunity to be part of a collaborative environment where your work has a direct and meaningful impact.
