Our team is community-focused, genuinely supportive, and motivated by a shared commitment to quality patient outcomes.

We pride ourselves on our approachable culture, strong team values, and a workplace that fosters continuous learning and improvement.

**About the role**

As the Waitlist Support Officer, you’ll play a key role in supporting the efficient scheduling of elective surgeries and ensuring patient care remains at the centre of all we do.

A typical week will see you:

- Have previous experience in waitlist management or hospital admissions
- Are reliable, honest, and hardworking
- Communicate clearly and professionally with patients and clinicians
- Adapt easily to changing workloads and shifting priorities
- Work well both independently and as part of a collaborative team
- While experience in a hospital setting is essential, we’ll support your success in this role with hands-on training and ongoing mentoring.
