Chief Digital Information Officer
We are an integrated trust, providing care in people’s homes and across our local community. We help people to stay well in the community, manage their own health with the right support, and avoid unnecessary visits and admissions to hospital.
When people do need hospital care, our experienced professionals deliver an outstanding quality of acute care using advanced technology and evidence-based procedures to ensure the best outcomes.
We have a budget of around £500m and provide community care in the London borough of Richmond, we also work in partnership with Your Healthcare who provide community care in Kingston. We provide a full range of acute services at Kingston Hospital, and short-stay rehabilitation at Teddington Memorial Hospital.
We serve a wider population for a range of specialist services. This includes hospital and outpatient services for people in Elmbridge (Surrey), Merton, Wandsworth and Sutton, and a community immunisation for most of south London.
The foundation of our strategy is the integration of services, creating joined-up pathways that provide a better experience for patients, with multi-disciplinary teams working together across the patient journey.
As a newly formed organisation, we have tremendous opportunity for digital transformation and for a dynamic, ambitious CDIO to join the Trust. A key early task will be the development of a best-in-class digital strategy - a clear road map for the next 5 to 10 years that will help us realise the full potential of integrated ways of working and help us on our journey to modern and sustainable healthcare. This will include working across our health system in increasingly innovative ways and building ways of information sharing that support and enhance patient care and wellbeing across the populations we serve. Our CDIO will also work to transform the day-to-day experience of our staff by ensuring that we have a modern and sustainable digital infrastructure to enable all our people to be their best and building a truly ‘digitally competent’ workforce for the future.
We are looking for a strategic thinker who is passionate about the potential for digital solutions to unlock change, as well as someone who is pragmatic and grounded, and able to build a team and a function within our organisation that acts as a platform for innovation. As a member of the executive team, you will also play a part in setting the tone for the organisation, acting as a role model for a culture which is inclusive, respectful, and which values and celebrates our differences, enabling us to continually improve our place of work and the care we provide.
We value and promote diversity and are committed to equality of opportunity for all. The best boards are those that reflect the communities we serve and therefore applications from all backgrounds are welcomed. We want to increase the diversity of our boards and particularly encourage applications from women, people from the local Black Asian and Minority Ethnic communities, LGBTQ+ communities, younger candidates and from people with lived experience of disability, who we know are under-represented.
Please refer to the full Job Description and Person Specification for a detailed overview of the role and its requirements.
When completing your application, please ensure you clearly demonstrate how your experience meets the expectations outlined.
