Working effectively under pressure and in a fast-paced setting is essential for success in this position. In addition to your primary responsibilities, you will also be expected to cover gaps in the ED reception and assist with general housekeeping tasks such as stock ordering and rotation.

To work in the United Kingdom, it is mandatory to demonstrate the relevant permission to work in the country, granted by the UK Visa and Immigration Service. NHS Scotland Boards will verify your entitlement to work in the UK as part of the pre-employment checks. This can be confirmed through various means, including specific visas or EU settled/pre-settled status. For detailed information on these permissions, please refer to the GOV.UK website. In cases where you may not possess the necessary eligibility to work in the UK, there is a possibility of sponsorship through a UK Skilled Worker/Health & Care Worker Visa. However, this option is subject to the employer being a licensed Sponsor and the role meeting the minimum salary threshold or going rate. Additional criteria can be found on the relevant website. It is imperative that you verify your right to work in the UK or the potential sponsorship eligibility before submitting your application.
