  7. This is a permanent part-time role. Irene Wagner works all day Tuesday, Thursday afternoon and Friday morning in the clinic. The Practice Officer / Secretary will need to be present at these times to welcome patients & their companions, and to arrange payment and making another appointment at the end of the consultation. Other times can be negotiated, but flexibility will be necessary. I expect it to involve 25 to 30 hours per week.
