The shifts are likely to be 10.30am to 8pm or 11.30am to 8pm.

Our Reception/Admissions Department at MMC Clayton is open seven days a week to enable us to meet the healthcare needs of the community we serve. Our shifts currently have varying start and finish times (largely between 7:00am and 8:00pm) and may change from time to time as our services further develop and grow. This role is particularly important as it is usually the first point of contact for people entering the hospital and sets the tone for their experience with us.

- Providing an equally high standard of customer service to people you interact with over the phone.
- Utilising a number of software systems to support your work and assist consumers
