With our own specialised pathology laboratory, modern clinics, and a supportive, people‑first culture, what we do truly matters.

About the Role
Do you enjoy variety in your day, love meeting recent people, and take pride in leading by example? We are looking for a warm, experienced, and professional Senior Receptionist to be the welcoming face of our Nelson Bay clinic.

This is a part time position working three to four days per week, where you will play a key role in creating a positive first impression for our patients while taking ownership of the smooth day-to-day operation of the clinic's front desk.

If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, possess strong healthcare administration skills, and are passionate about delivering high-quality service while supporting a small team, we would love to meet you.

Key Responsibilities:

- Deliver warm, welcoming, and exceptional customer service to our patients and visitors.

- Act as the senior point of escalation for non-routine patient enquiries, complaints, and complex billing questions.

- Process patient billing and documentation with strict accuracy, including standard Medicare, DVA, private payments, and surgical MBS items.





- Provide day-to-day guidance, technical support, and mentoring to junior reception staff and new team members.

- Oversee pathology tracking and recall management to ensure results are promptly followed up and finalised.

- Maintain a well-organized, fully stocked, and professional reception and waiting area.

What We’re Looking For:

- 1–2+ years of experience in a medical reception or healthcare administration role (skin cancer or GP clinic experience is a strong plus).

- Experience with Best Practice software is highly advantageous.

- Solid working knowledge of Medicare billing processes, including surgical items and DVA.

- Excellent verbal and written communication skills with a confident, empathetic approach.

- High-level administrative and problem-solving skills, with the ability to multitask and maintain attention to detail under pressure.

- A proactive, team-oriented mindset, flexibility, and a positive, can-do attitude.

Perks & Benefits:
