What I'm looking for

Medically qualified with international experience in South Africa, Bulgaria, and the UK. I’ve developed strong administrative skills in GP and hospital settings, including documentation, scheduling, and patient coordination. Proficient in Microsoft Office and EHR systems. Fluent in multiple languages and skilled in team communication. Seeking a part-time administrative assistant role.

Multilingual medical professional with international clinical experience and a growing passion for healthcare administration. I’ve supported hospital and GP practices with documentation, discharge summaries, appointment scheduling, and communication across multidisciplinary teams.

Proficient in Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and electronic health records, I bring strong organizational skills and attention to detail to every task. My experience in administrative duties has inspired me to pursue more opportunities in this area, where I can help streamline processes and support high-quality patient care.

Currently seeking part-time administrative assistant roles where I can contribute to efficient operations and make a meaningful impact behind the scenes.
