• Support system upgrades, testing, implementation of new functionality and change management activities across Morse and related PMS applications.
• Provide advanced technical support and troubleshooting for patient management systems and associated secondary and primary care applications, working closely with clinical and IT teams.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to identify opportunities for system enhancements and deliver innovative digital solutions.
• Support integration projects and data quality initiatives across the patient management ecosystem.
• Develop user guidance, deliver training and provide expert advice to end users and colleagues.

• Proven experience in healthcare IT, ideally supporting patient management or clinical information systems.
• Strong understanding of clinical workflows, electronic patient records, data quality and information governance.
• Experience configuring, supporting or developing business-critical applications, ideally including patient management systems.
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to investigate and resolve complex technical issues.
• Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical users.
• Experience with system integration, database technologies, Microsoft SQL Server, data repositories and clinical systems would be highly desirable.

Based within the IM&T Applications and Development Team, the postholder will also contribute to a wide range of projects and digital transformation initiatives, helping to deliver new functionality, service improvements and system enhancements across the organisation.

The role is varied and fast-paced, requiring the ability to multitask, learn complex processes, pay close attention to detail and maintain a positive, proactive approach. These are key attributes we will be looking for in both your application and at interview.
