We have an exciting opportunity within our reception team and we are looking for an enthusiastic individual with a desire to help and support our patients to get the best service that we can offer.

You will join us in creating a welcoming and nurturing environment for our medical students and GP trainees who bring a fresh excitement to the practice as they progress towards their goal of becoming a fully-fledged GP. We also offer opportunities to join our annual Step Count Challenge and participate in social outings throughout the year.
