Head of Hive EPR & Digital Applications

Join to apply for the Head of Hive EPR & Digital Applications role at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust
.

Joining the Digital Service places you at the heart of the Trust’s digital journey. The Hive Electronic Patient Record (EPR), powered by Epic, launched in September 2022 — the largest UK deployment at the time — marked a major milestone in MFT’s vision of becoming a Digital First organisation. Hive has greatly enhanced the Trust’s ability to harness data by capturing high-quality, high-volume clinical and non-clinical information across acute services.

This enables data-driven insights to accelerate digital transformation and deliver safer, more efficient, and more personalised patient care.

We have an ambitious digital strategic roadmap, with Hive as the engine for transformation across MFT. Our aim is to deliver scalable, robust, and reliable digital infrastructure, applications, and services that underpin major programmes and strategic priorities. This includes contributing to national initiatives such as the New Hospitals Programme, supporting North Manchester General Hospital’s redevelopment, which is shaping the digital blueprint for future hospitals.

We are also evolving our digital governance framework to ensure safe, effective, and innovative use of emerging technologies — including AI, Machine Learning, and Robotic Process Automation — across all areas of our services.

• Drive MFT’s digital strategic roadmap and lead a portfolio of critical programmes and initiatives.
• Deputise for the Director of Hive EPR & Digital Applications as required.
• Lead complex programmes, drive operational excellence, and influence Trust-wide transformation, working collaboratively with Executive and Clinical Leaders.
• Enhance clinical quality, patient and staff experience, operational effectiveness, and research excellence.
• Lead high-impact projects, develop future talent, and contribute to a culture of continuous improvement.

Interviews provisionally scheduled for w/c 19th January 2026.
