Who are we?
Newmedica are one of the leading providers of NHS ophthalmology services in England, providing
outpatients appointments, diagnostic testing and eye surgery. We aim to change lives through
better sight and eye health.
We care for thousands of NHS and private patients a year in our specialist eye clinics across the
country. We have significant growth plans over the next few years as we look to establish a national
footprint and open many new sites across the UK.

Role overview
We are looking for a new Receptionist to join our Lincolnshire sites. This will be 40 hours over 7 days per
week including weekends on a rota basis. The role can be considered on a job share basis in 8 hour day allocations.
Our Receptionists are usually the first person our patients will see when they visit a clinic so a
friendly, approachable and welcoming personality is a must!
The Receptionist will welcome all patients and check them in for their clinic or theatre visits. You will
be working on the patient record system alongside other systems so should be comfortable using a
variety of technology solutions.
You’ll also undertake a variety of administrative duties such as booking patients into their
appointments, making and answering phone calls, sending and replying to emails, managing the post
and sending letters and dealing with enquiries. As such you’ll require a high attention to detail and
excellent accuracy levels. Our clinics are busy so we’re looking for someone who loves working in a
fast-paced environment where every day is different.
The thought of eye surgery can be a daunting prospect for patients to deal with, so our team
members need to be empathetic and able to put patients at ease.
