Crynodeb
NHS England’s Data and Analytics Directorate is supporting the NHS to become data enabled over the next 10 years. Our vision is to put patients in control of their data and care, support clinicians, decision-makers and researchers with access to trusted, real-time and high-quality data.
The Chief Solution Architect (AI) will lead and shape the future of AI within NHSE. This is a high-impact role with responsibility for overseeing the AI Factory, a critical function driving the development, deployment, and scaling of AI solutions that can truly impact our Patient and Staff experiences.
NHSE operates a hybrid working policy but we are open to applications for any office base location. There will be requirements for regular travel to Leeds and London offices.
Key aspects of this role will be to: -
• Lead and provide strategic direction for the NHS AI Factory: This includes setting the vision, strategy, and roadmap for developing, deploying, and scaling AI solutions within the NHS.
• Oversee the end-to-end lifecycle of AI solutions: From identifying opportunities and developing solutions to deploying, monitoring, and iterating on them, the Deputy Director will oversee the entire process.
• Ensure alignment with regulations and ethical considerations: The Deputy Director will be responsible for ensuring that all AI solutions are developed and deployed in compliance with relevant regulations and ethical guidelines.
The NHS England board have set out the top-level purpose for the new organisation to lead the NHS in England to deliver high-quality services for all, which will inform the detailed design work and we will achieve this purpose by:
• Enabling local systems and providers to improve the health of their people and patients and reduce health inequalities.
• Making the NHS a great place to work, where our people can make a difference and achieve their potential.
• Working collaboratively to ensure our healthcare workforce has the right knowledge, skills, values and behaviours to deliver accessible, compassionate care
• Optimising the use of digital technology, research, and innovation
• Delivering value for money.
