Summary
The Trust seeks to be a world-leader in the utilisation of technology in healthcare, both to support modern and effective patient care and to further our track record in research, innovation, and education. Our Digital Healthcare Technology arm is led by UCLH’s Chief Technology Officer (CTO) to build and run the technology platform for our healthcare services, including our integrated electronic health record Epic which went live in 2019.
We have created an exciting new role of Deputy CTO for Operations, reporting to and deputising for the CTO alongside another senior deputy role focussed on Architecture. Your key responsibilities will include:
• Manging our Projects, Service Delivery, and System Management teams and delivering all business-as-usual technology service functions.
• Leading the production and implementation of our operational technology strategies as we approach the end of our current ten year IT outsourcing contract in 2027 and shape our plans for the next ten
• Acting as a key interface between Digital Healthcare Technology and the wider organisation, playing a visible leadership role and building strong stakeholder relationships
• Deputising for the CTO at key meetings at the Trust’s most senior level
• Leading the commercial management of our major outsourced technology partner and building relationships with wider commercial suppliers for service delivery
We are looking for a senior technology leader with excellent operational, stakeholder, and commercial management skills. You will need experience of working at a senior level in a large, complex provider of safety-critical services. Previous experience gained within healthcare is desirable, but not essential. This is a people-focussed technology role, where your ability to inspire your team, develop the right culture and behaviours, and build strong relationships with wider Trust staff, external stakeholders, and our commercial partners will be vital to your success.
In return, we offer a challenging and exciting role at the heart of one of the UK’s foremost, progressive, digital healthcare settings where you can have a major impact on our future direction and service delivery.
