Set within 48 acres of beautiful landscaped gardens in a small village in East Sussex, Priory Ticehurst House is an idyllic location which allows us to provide a highly therapeutic environment, making us the perfect place for people staying with us to begin their recovery. We work collaboratively with the discharge teams to ensure a smooth transition back into existing community services, or to an individual’s home, where possible.

You’ll be part of a dedicated and compassionate team, all working together to ensure the smooth running of the hospital and to support the wellbeing of our patients. While your role doesn’t involve providing direct care, your contribution is vital in helping to maintain a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment for everyone. Whether you're assisting with day-to-day operations, keeping things organised, or ensuring our spaces are well looked after, your support plays an important part in creating a positive experience for those who live and work here.
We are looking for someone to join our small friendly team. As a General Administrator you will need
- To work accurately and methodically
- Meet deadlines
- Use of medical terminology
- Attention to detail
- Work in a small team but use your own initiative
- Work with a range of people

You can find additional information in the attached job description.
What you'll bring to the role
Our work is rewarding but can be challenging, so resilience is key. No two days are the same! Your natural empathy will help you support others through both the highs and lows.
The ideal candidate will need to have excellent keyboard skills, IT skills, good spelling and grammar and organisational skills. You will receive the training you need to do the job. This includes an introduction to the department, how to use the IT systems and telephone equipment and the procedures to follow. You may also receive training in customer care.
