Job overview

The Digital Programme Manager (DPM) will work within the Digital Programme Management Office (DPMO), part of the Digital Health directorate, and will have overall responsibility for a portfolio of Trust priority digital programmes and projects. This role will also be required to carry out a range of duties as delegated by the Head of Digital Programmes.

The Digital Programme Manager will be responsible for ensuring that each programme and project in their portfolio delivers the defined objectives across the agreed scope and planned timeframe. This will be achieved through compliance with the DPMO standards; engagement with all relevant stakeholder holders; completion of appropriate Trust documentation; and ensuring clinical quality and risk management are at the centre of implementation.

The main responsibility of this post is to orchestrate digital programmes and projects using professional programme and project management principles, and to work closely with clinical safety and other service leads to ensure patient-centric improvement through digitisation.

The Digital Programme Manager will also work on a range of programmes and projects at a strategic level across a wide range of partners (including commissioners) in the integrated care system (ICS). This will include the Electronic Patient Record (EPR) and Future Paget (new hospital) programmes.

Main duties of the job

  • The Digital Programme Manager will actively assist the Head of Digital Programmes in the education and training of relevant stakeholders to improve the success rates of the schemes, projects and / or programmes being delivered, ensuring that the benefits of the schemes, projects and / programmes have been delivered and that the full savings agreed have been realised.
  • The Digital Programme Manager will monitor progress for each scheme, project and / or programme, reporting, on a project by project basis, to the Head of Digital Programmes.
  • The Digital Programme Manager will be involved in identifying and recruiting appropriate resources from Digital Health and Clinical Safety Team and throughout the Trust throughout the duration of the project, using persuasion and influencing skills to motivate or re-energise to create a framework to ensure successful delivery. This may require the Digital Programme Manager, with the support of the Head of Digital Programmes, to liaise with the line manager in reporting staff performance.
