* Represent GWH/RUH at senior‑level programme and project meetings, providing clear, evidence‑based updates and recommendations

BSW Hospitals Group - EPR is seeking two experienced and motivated Programme Managers to lead the local delivery of a major shared Electronic Patient Record (EPR) programme, with one post based at Great Western Hospital (GWH) and one at the Royal United Hospitals Bath (RUH). This is a pivotal senior role within our digital transformation agenda, offering a unique opportunity to make a tangible impact on patient care, staff experience, and the long‑term sustainability of our services. We are looking for a confident programme leader with significant experience managing complex programmes or projects—ideally within digital, IT, or transformation environments—supported by a recognised project or programme management qualification (such as PRINCE2, MSP, P3O or APM, or equivalent experience). You will bring strong leadership, communication and stakeholder‑management skills, with a proven ability to influence at senior levels, alongside experience of managing risk, issues, finances and benefits at scale. A passion for digital innovation and an understanding of how EPRs support integrated, patient‑centred care are essential. Experience within the NHS or healthcare, and knowledge of integrated care systems and the NHS Long Term Plan, would be an advantage.
We are proud to be part of BSW Hospitals Group – a formal partnership between Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Royal United Hospitals Bath NHS Foundation Trust and Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust. With a combined workforce of over 17,600 colleagues, and a budget of 1.6 billion, the Group is united by a common purpose to deliver the best possible care to over 1 million people. We are creating a healthy and care system that works with the people we care for, reducing the differences people currently face in access, experience and outcomes, improving the experience of our colleagues and tackling shared challenges such as sustainability and finances. Every improvement we make across our Group will be guided by what creates the greatest benefit for our colleagues, our patients, our communities, and our partners.
