About the Role

Working within our Sample Reception team, you will be responsible for receiving, processing, and preparing a wide range of specimens from wards, outpatient departments, GP practices, and external healthcare providers.

Is confident using computer systems and entering data accurately.
Can prioritise their workload effectively and work independently when required.
Works well as part of a multidisciplinary team.
Is committed to delivering high standards of patient care and service excellence.
