This is an excellent opportunity to help build a leading digital function in the NHS. The Senior Digital Infrastructure & Service Improvement Project Manager is a key role within our innovation and transformation team.
This role will be crucial in shaping how we provide robust, scalable, and secure infrastructure services to support the wider Trust now and in the future. Reporting directly to the Senior Digital Infrastructure & Service Improvement Programme Manager you will be responsible for the development, upgrade and improvement of all infrastructure functions including networking and server and cloud capabilities. You will manage several different infrastructure projects collaborating with Digital Operational Leads to ensure timely and effective delivery.
We are looking for experienced infrastructure project managers who possess an excellent understanding of technology infrastructure and understands the importance of matrix management. You will have a proven track record of ensuring that infrastructure services are designed and managed to provide maximum uptime, capacity, and cost efficiency. You will be accustomed to working with senior teams and be comfortable working across organisational boundaries and familiar with working within project and service management frameworks. Digital Infrastructure is at the heart of the Trust, and this is an exciting opportunity to shape and build a high performing, effective and robust service.
In return, you could be part of our digital first journey in which there is both permission and support to be innovative, to ensure the Trust develops a leading digital function.
Originally formed in 2000, ELFT has long been recognised as a centre of excellence for mental health care, innovation and improvement. We care for a population of more than 750,000 and we are proud to serve one of the most culturally diverse parts of the UK. In Bedfordshire and Luton, we are now responsible for a further 630,000 people’s mental health and community health care needs. Wherever patients receive our services and from whichever team, our values of care, respect and inclusivity underpin all that we do. Valuing the diversity of our local population is fundamental to realising our vision to provide outstanding healthcare to our diverse community. In September 2016, the Trust was proud to be rated as ‘Outstanding’ by the Care Quality Commission, and the Trust was once again rated at ‘Outstanding’ by the CQC in June 2018 and 2021.
Our Board have clear ambition to be a ‘Digital First’ organisation. Our digital strategy is a collaboration between the Trust senior management team, the Digital Team, and a wide range of stakeholders who firmly believe in building upon our digital capabilities to ensure ELFT are regarded as pioneers in Digital. The scale of response to the COVID-19 pressures, particularly enabling remote and mobile working, and setting up the Stratford vaccination centre has been remarkable. However, there are also significant challenges to address. Digital tools and services are now fundamental to the management and delivery of our services. This is an extremely exciting time to be joining our Trust on this journey.
