Principal Trainer; EPR

Lewisham and Greenwich is embarking on the biggest programme of digitally‑enabled clinical and operational transformation we have ever undertaken. The Electronic Patient Record (EPR) Acceleration Programme is our exciting and challenging programme aimed at transforming the way we deliver health and care in a way that is both clinically and financially sustainable. It will underpin everything we do for our patients and carers, people and communities, as well as creating a working environment that better enables our staff to deliver the best care they can every day.

We will be joining our regional partner organisations, Guy’s and St. Thomas’ and King’s College Hospitals, on their Epic EPR platform to deliver a shared acute and community record across south‑east London. Through this implementation, we will be able to increase joint working and improve patient and staff experience across the region.

Key to the success of the EPR implementation will be supporting Lewisham and Greenwich staff to adopt the new ways of working from go‑live. Our Principal Trainers will work collaboratively with Principal Trainers in the other two trusts to prepare for our EPR go‑live in 2027. They will ensure that the training curriculum, environments, and programme delivery meets the needs of the Trust and support the testing of the solution for go‑live.

The Principal Trainer role is a new position in the EPR Programme that will unify our patient record across Lewisham and Greenwich acute and community services, as well as our partner trusts.

The Principal Trainer will deliver and develop the Epic training environment and curriculum through close engagement with programme, clinical, and operational staff. They will manage go‑live trainers and ensure successful delivery of the go‑live training programme.
