Who We Are
NHS Education for Scotland (NES) is the national health board with statutory responsibilities to effect sustainable change through workforce development, education and training across the health and social care system in Scotland, while working at UK level with partner organisations.
The function of NES Technology Service is to develop and lead a programme of work and services that supports both the corporate functions that allow NES to work and deliver its strategic objective and to deliver against Scotland's Digital Health and Care Strategy.
NES Technology Service (NTS) has been formed with the specific objective of consolidating NES’ information-based expertise into a professional, focused centre for information and technical excellence.
It has created a strategic programme for the transformation of digital based services to allow NES to become a leading digital organisation in Scottish Health, digital by default and fully aligned with the Scottish Government’s technology strategies.
These responsibilities relate to the core functions of NES in the following areas:
Design, development, and operation of a technical environment and commensurate digital services to all NHS Scotland, Scottish Government and Care Sector stakeholders.
Support and development of fit for purpose technology systems and services to allow delivery of national strategic outcomes.
Communication, support, and leadership in all digital and technology disciplines.
Impact assessment of new technology services and systems.
Research and development as appropriate.
Diversity and Inclusion
Developing a successful national service for Scotland is impossible without ensuring we consider the diverse needs, perspectives and backgrounds of everyone in Scotland in our work.
We are focused on hiring the very best talent available for NES, and actively encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds and aim to ensure everyone is treated fairly, with respect and has a positive recruitment experience – regardless of the outcome.
It’s not essential to be in Information Governance/Data Protection role right now. You may be returning from a career break (e.g. maternity, paternity, caring for others) or returning after working in another field. Your experiences elsewhere can bring a fresh perspective to our work.
If you are considering applying and feel it would be helpful to discuss this initially, please contact Tracey Gill, Principal Analyst (Data Protection Officer), NTS tracey.gill@nhs.scot
Next Steps
**NHS candidates will be considered firstly on a secondment basis, and so are strongly encouraged to discuss this with their current NHS employer at the earliest opportunity, ideally prior to application.
Our recruitment process is currently 100% remote and if successful you would initially work remotely, working from our offices as operationally required.
All applicants who are shortlisted for interview will be contacted by e-mail.
Online interviews (including a presentation) will take place on Wednesday 14 May – Monday 19 May 2025. The presentation topic will be sent to candidates selected for interview.
