An exciting new opportunity has arisen within the Information Services Directorate for a Lead Specialist to support NHS Wales in the use of data to improve the delivery of patient care and services.

The posts will play a key role in maximizing the potential of the national data collected by DHCW, contributing to enhanced data analysis to support the information needs within each of the Directorates in our organisation.

The roles will support a culture of continuous improvement, service development, and digital transformation in the organisation by developing and taking forward the requirements for the Single Cancer Pathway Programme.

We are looking for highly motivated individuals, someone who enjoys working as part of a team and can demonstrate a commitment to delivering a high-quality service.

The successful applicants will need to be able to work under pressure, be responsive to fast moving deadlines and maintain positive, constructive relationships with a wide range of individuals, and organisations, and be able to prioritise their own work.

This post is fixed term/secondment until march 2024 due to meet the needs of the service.

Experience of working of the NHS and clinical knowledge would be advantageous, however practical experience and knowledge of the following would be particularly desirable:

SQL proficiency
The ability to build comprehensive Extract, Transform and Load (ETL) routines
Database administration, maintenance and monitoring skills
Managing Stakeholder requirements, expectations

Digital Health and Care Wales (DHCW) is part of the NHS Wales family and has an important role in changing the way health and care services are delivered through technology and data.

The organisation supports frontline staff with modern systems and access to important information about their patients, while empowering the people of Wales to manage their own health through digital NHS Wales services.

Working for DHCW offers lots of employee benefits, including flexible working, a competitive salary, 28 days of annual leave plus Bank Holidays and opportunities for career development.

We are committed to recognising and celebrating our staff as the most valuable part of our organisation.

Join our game changing, life-saving team and start making a real difference to health and care services in Wales.

This is a brilliant opportunity for a motivated individual to take the next step in their career whilst supporting critical workstreams.

If you are someone with the drive to improve patient outcomes, with the desire and aptitude to implement technical initiatives then this role is perfect for you.

We offer a range of opportunities for continuous professional development with in-house training, workshops and seminars, as well as external training providers.

Depending on experience we may offer the post as a Band 6 Lead Specialist.

If appointed as an Information Officer, progression to the next pay band is dependent on meeting an agreed set of competency criteria managed through Personal Development Review (PDR).

Once those criteria are met you will automatically progress to Band 6 Lead Specialist.
