Glamorgan, United Kingdom Digital Health and Care Wales Full time

The role of Senior Clinical Data Modeller is an exciting opportunity to join the Clinical Data Engine (CDE) team within Digital Health and Care Wales (DHCW). The post holder will lead and direct how clinical data is standardised and persisted across the healthcare spectrum. CDE is a platform of tools based on the openEHR specification for use in national digital programmes such as Cancer and Shared Medicines.

You will be intrinsic to the growing CDE capability, supporting development and learning throughout the organisation. Digital Health and Care Wales needs forward thinking, digitally enabled and enthusiastic individuals from a range of backgrounds to shape and guide how health data standards may be implemented across a range of healthcare domains.

As a Clinical Data Modeller, you come from clinical, biomedical, informatics, digital or clinical coding roles. You might be a digitally aware clinician with a penchant for software development. Or a business analyst with intimate knowledge of the health care domain.

Most important, is that you have an intrinsic understanding of clinical processes and how these translate to data. You see the wide-angle view, the possibilities of emerging digital technologies and have a desire to make a difference for clinicians and patients alike.

This post is fixed term for 4 months due to meet the needs of the service.
- You will be adept at working in a range of clinical and technical environments, dealing with suppliers and stakeholders across a varied digital landscape.
- You will be adept at quantifying and modelling health care processes, documenting these into data designs, relaying business analysis and clinical requirement outputs for software development.
- You will support and lead on the evaluation, scope and design of innovative products and services throughout the clinical data delivery pipeline.
- You will act as a domain expert, owning clinical data models and be responsible for their assurance.
- You have knowledge of common health technologies and languages such as HL7 FHIR, SNOMED CT, IHE XDS, openEHR or other clinical data domain models and standards.
- You are a clinical digital innovator.
- You are a communicator, able to relay complex technical/clinical detail to a range of communities and stakeholders in a clear, concise manner.
- You are a collaborator, able to support colleagues, present and share your knowledge and learning as well as learning constructively from others.
- You will develop a network of relationships and be an active contributor within wider communities of practice such as PRSB, FHIR UK Core and openEHR, sharing and learning collaboratively.
- You are a decisive digital leader and an active, open team player.

Digital Health and Care Wales (DHCW) is part of the NHS Wales family and has an important role in changing the way health and care services are delivered through technology and data. The organisation supports frontline staff with modern systems and access to important information about their patients, while empowering the people of Wales to manage their own health through digital NHS Wales services.

Working for DHCW offers lots of employee benefits, including flexible working, a competitive salary, 28 days of annual leave plus Bank Holidays and opportunities for career development. We are committed to recognising and celebrating our staff as the most valuable part of our organisation.

Join our game changing, life-saving team and start making a real difference to health and care services in Wales.

The Senior Clinical Data Modeller is responsible for the design, build and assurance of computer understandable structures that describe how clinical data shall be used, persisted and transmitted. You are responsible for guiding how standardised design principles can be implemented across clinical networks and stakeholders across Wales and the UK. This pertains to the persistence and interoperability of data, and an understanding of the practicalities (and shortfalls) of supporting seamless data flow across varying clinical domains.

The value of digital care is determined upon how safe and accessible it is for clinicians to use. This requires appropriately governed access to data that is standardised through technologies such as HL7 FHIR, openEHR and SNOMED CT.

You will lead on the ability to ensure that clinical processes are represented though openEHR archetypes and templates, and support the development of HL7 FHIR standards and profiles to support interoperability across the healthcare domain. Technical support and training will be provided.

The ability to speak Welsh is desirable for this post; Welsh and/or English speakers are equally welcome to apply
