About Us

Our Customer Service and Admissions team at Monash Childrens Hospital (MCH) is now looking for professional, empathetic and motivated individuals to join us at the Admissions office situated at the Lagoon Ward Reception.


About the Role

We are recruiting for a permanent, part time role, working approximately seven shifts (39.0 hours) per fortnight at Monash Childrens Hospital (MCH).

The part time shifts you’d be working on a regular basis are likely to be:


Week 1 of the fortnight:

Monday: 7:00am – 11:30am

Tuesday: 7:00am – 11:30am

Wednesday: 6:30am – 2:00pm

Friday: 6:30am – 2:00pm


Week 2 of the fortnight:

Monday: 7:00am – 11:30am

Tuesday: 7:00am – 11:30am

Wednesday: 6:30am – 2:00pm


Working as part of a dedicated team, you’d receive your roster for work at least two weeks in advance, to help you plan your time and accommodate any other commitments you have. In addition, you’d have to opportunity to pick up additional shifts in the Monash Health network when colleagues take periods of significant leave or when we need your support with covering other absences.


Our Admissions Department at MCH is open five days a week to enable us to meet the healthcare needs of the community we serve. Our shifts currently have varying start and finish times (largely between 6.30am and 8:00- 9pm) and may change from time to time as our services further develop and grow. This role is particularly important as it is usually the first point of contact for people entering the hospital and sets the tone for their experience with us.


In addition to providing a warm, welcoming greeting to people approaching you at reception, your key responsibilities would also include:

Providing an equally high standard of customer service to people you interact with face to face and over the phone.
Utilising a number of software systems to support your work and assist consumers
Ensuring timely, complete and accurate entry of data and details when admitting and updating patient details into a range of systems.
We use iPM as our Patient administration system, Electronic Medical Record (EMR), Scanned Medical Records (SMR) and may be asked to undertake other related administrative duties.


About You/ What You Need

We are a caring, patient-focused team, working in a busy, varied environment every day. We’re looking for someone who shares our patient-focused outlook and who is motivated to apply their strong administration and customer service skills to a dynamic workplace. To be considered, we’ll look for you to demonstrate these attributes:

Excellent communication skills, including demonstrated listening skills, and sensitivity to the feelings of others
Strong office administration skills and an ability to rapidly grasp the challenges of a busy workplace where multi-tasking is a must
Passion for performing your work to a consistently high standard
Ability to prioritise tasks as circumstances change, so that critical and/or urgent tasks are completed on time
Aptitude for learning new systems and processes quickly
Flexibility to accommodate shift work and ability to work at other Monash Health sites if needed is essential.
