This post offers the opportunity to work in a challenging and changing environment while gaining wide experience across the governance agenda by supporting the directorate (s) in all aspects of safety, incidents, complaints, risk and governance issues, and improving patient care and experience through analysing risk, trending incidents, identifying areas for learning and sharing good practice.

You will be required to be proficient in the use of Microsoft Office; with the ability to produce high quality reports.

This is a 37.5-hour post based at the Royal Albert Edward Infirmary but may require working across all sites.
