Depending on priorities, your focus may be in one of these areas:

• Data quality – improving how data quality is understood, measured and communicated for analytical and clinical use
• Incident management – helping establish clear processes, communications and rapid responses when systems or services are impacted

Across all areas, you’ll work closely with technical specialists, clinicians, analysts and external partners such as NHS England and NHS Digital.

You don’t need every skill listed on the full advert, but this role will suit you if you have experience in areas such as:

• Leading service, programme or project delivery in complex environments
• Working confidently with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders
• Managing risks, dependencies, governance and benefits realisation
• Embedding change into business‑as‑usual operations
• Creating clarity and momentum across multidisciplinary teams
