EPR Project Manager

Job Summary

At the Royal Orthopaedic NHS Foundation Trust, we are responding to the increasing complexity of the health and care system and the urgent need to strengthen our digital infrastructure. As part of this, we are implementing a unified Electronic Patient Record (EPR) system, transforming the way we deliver care across the Trust.

We are seeking an experienced and dynamic Project Manager to lead and support core work streams within this transformational programme. You will play a pivotal role in managing the development of clinical pathways and service redesign in line with our programme plan, ensuring that our digital systems deliver tangible benefits for patients and staff alike.

Our priority ‘enabler’ work streams are critical to the successful deployment of the EPR, shaping the Trust's future organisational infrastructure and digital capability. In this role, you will manage large‑scale, sustainable change as we move away from outdated, paper‑based processes, embedding innovation and efficiency across the Trust.

The post holder will work closely with the other workstream leads, leading the implementation of their own workstream to successfully implement the EPR across the organisation. The programme involves significant organisational change management and may require the solving of complex technical issues to enable the transformation, clinical and administrative processes. The post holder may have line management responsibility for workstream staff.
