About The Role

 
Have you ever wanted to play your part in an exciting service that really makes a difference to everyone’s lives? As a key member of our 111 team in Stockley Park, Uxbridge you’ll be doing just that.
 
Our new offices in Stockley Park have a café on the site, and there are also lots of options within the business park for lunches! If you are travelling using public transport, we are a 25 minute walk away from Hayes & Hillingdon tube station or a 10 minute bus journey away, and if you are driving we also have plenty of parking available on site too! 
 

This is your chance to be a Health Advisor in our contact centre, handling calls from members of the public. You’ll learn how to use a state-of-the-art triage tool called NHS Pathways to assess patients over the phone and direct them to the most appropriate care.
