Salary: From £27,000

sk:n is the UK's largest and most established provider of skin and aesthetic treatments, operating clinics nationwide and supported by a network of doctors, clinicians and practitioners delivering the highest standards of clinical care. Ensuring these clinical experts are scheduled effectively across the estate is central to both patient experience and commercial performance.

We are seeking to recruit a Diary Management Scheduler who will play a vital role in ensuring that sk:n's doctors, clinicians and practitioners are scheduled effectively across the UK, aligning each clinical expert's skillset and accreditations to the right clinics, treatments and appointment slots to maximise productivity and service delivery.

You will be responsible for building, reviewing and optimising clinical rotas and diaries across the sk:n estate, ensuring that the right practitioner is in the right clinic at the right time to meet patient demand. By matching clinician capability to treatment demand, you will minimise unproductive time, reduce coverage gaps, and ensure clinics can deliver the full range of treatments their local patient base requires.

You will work closely with contact centre teams, hospital / clinic teams and clinical operations to ensure practitioner availability reflects operational requirements, treatment demand and commercial priorities. Your attention to detail and proactive approach will directly support both service delivery and the efficient use of clinical resource.

You will also be responsible for ensuring all scheduling decisions and adjustments are recorded accurately, that skillset and accreditation records are kept up to date, and that changes support both operational efficiency and the needs of patients.

• Monitor scheduling performance and elevate any capacity risks, resourcing shortfalls, or operational concerns to the appropriate management teams.
• Support the effective deployment of clinical resource by coordinating cover for absence, leave and demand fluctuations across the estate.
• Maintain accurate records of all scheduling adjustments and changes within the relevant systems.
