• Strong organisational and time management skills.The ability to manage multiple tasks and competing deadlines.

• The ability to handle confidential and sensitive information with discretion.

• Good IT skills and the confidence to learn new systems and technology.

• The resilience to stay calm, focused and organised when things get busy.

Experience using digital dictation software or document management systems would be advantageous, but if you're confident with technology and willing to learn, don't let that put you off.
