You will lead the team providing day-to-day system management and administration of critical clinical systems across the Trust. This will involve the working closely with departments to ensure that solutions are designed and built to support service delivery, and fit into the wider digital strategy, through to implementation and on-going support and maintenance.

You will need to lead discussions, explaining complex and sensitive information from Clinical Systems, which can relate to clinical performance, to senior clinical and non-clinical staff in situations where the information may be contentious and open to different interpretations.

None of this can happen without a skilled and enthusiastic team of technical experts, in a wide range of specialties including infrastructure, network, security, hardware deployment and software configuration.
