The Role

The Customer Service Officer is the most varied and versatile role within the team. There are three key areas; Equipment handling, dealing with health professionals and the public and administrative duties. The role is best suited to people with a broad range of skills.

Customer Service skills are also important as the Customer Service Officer answers a wide range of enquiries from both health professionals who request equipment and the patients who are our customers and their families.

A portion of each day involves administrative tasks, covering all office functions, including tracking equipment, maintaining accurate data bases and a range of office duties.
