Summary
We are seeking an experienced Service Manager for a Fixed Term Contract (FTC) until31st March 2025.
Candidates should have demonstrable experience and expertise in service development and understanding of research.
In June 2022, HInM formally commenced a high-profile priority programme with the objective of successfully deploying a Secure Data Environment (SDE) to significantly enhance access to Greater Manchester’s mature digital and data assets, including the GM Care Record, for research and innovation whilst maintaining public and patient trust.
Here at HInM we are looking for a dynamic and dedicated Service Manager to join our team and contribute to the success of the SDE programme. The ideal candidate will be innovative and committed to delivering high-quality work.
Playing a crucial role in developing and supporting the service planning, execution, and monitoring of the Greater Manchester Secure Data Environment (GM SDE) Programme, the post holder will help ensure the achievement of the programme goals and objectives are met.
The role will report to the GM SDE Product Director and will also liaise closely with colleagues in partner organisations, including universities, NHS partners, industry, and other key stakeholders.
Greater Manchester (GM) is regarded as one of the most active, diverse and growing health innovation ecosystems in the UK, with increasing global significance due to its concentration of advanced health and care, academic, life sciences and digital sectors. Recognising this, GM was the first area in England to integrate the provision of health and social care together with all of the supporting research institutions. Health Innovation Manchester sits at the very heart of this exciting, evolving system designed to transform the health of its community.
The SDE Service Manager for the GM SDE will play a crucial role in helping to develop the service delivery model for the GM SDE and input to national SDE network plans, both short and long term. This position requires a strategic thinker with a strong operational background and a deep understanding of health data research and the research ecosystem. This role will coordinate the work to develop the operating service model to ensure a viable self-sustaining secure data environment in GM, implementing and maintaining robust processes to enable access to data.
Health Innovation Manchester works at the forefront of healthcare innovation to discover, develop and deploy new healthcare solutions.
We harness the power of the NHS, wider health and care systems, industry and academia within our region to address major challenges and tackle inequalities.
We are fast becoming an international leader in health innovation and digital healthcare, transforming the health & wellbeing of citizens across Greater Manchester.
Here at HInM we are passionate about creating an inclusive workplace that promotes and values diversity. We know through experience that different ideas, perspectives, and backgrounds create a stronger and more creative work environment that delivers better patient outcomes.
We are positively challenging traditional organisational barriers which get in the way of care delivery and are continuously working to improve our collective offer to staff in areas including health & wellbeing, benefits, including training and development along with flexible working.
Working in a hybrid model, our offices in Citylabs Manchester provide a great collaborative and creative working space. We combine remote working with two days a week on site in our state-of-the-art offices.
