Location: Bristol (On-site)

We are looking for a Service Advisor to join Practice Plus Group IUC on a 6-month fixed-term contract, with an immediate start available. This is an exciting opportunity for someone looking to build a career within urgent care services, with a clear development pathway into a Health Advisor role following successful completion of training and competency requirements.
