**About the Role**:
We’re seeking a high-performing and adaptable Administration Officer to support the Nursing & Midwifery Directorate at James Fletcher Hospital. This isn’t your typical admin gig — it’s a dynamic, high-touch role where your work directly contributes to workforce and recruitment strategies across portfolios such as clinical practice, leadership, and professional development.

Based in the Officer’s Quarters building, this role will see you supporting a talented and friendly team — with opportunities to step up when needed, grow your skills, and make a meaningful impact.

- Strong administrative experience, ideally within health or a complex environment
- High-level written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to liaise with a broad range of stakeholders
- Demonstrated capability in document formatting, reporting and data presentation
- Proven proficiency with systems such as MS Office Suite; experience with recruitment systems (e.g. ROB) highly desirable
- Ability to work flexibly and independently, while contributing to a strong, collaborative team culture
