We are looking for a skilled, experienced and enthusiastic trainer to join our innovative Epic Training team.

Patients are at the centre of everything we do.  Our Electronic Health Record - Epic - helps to ensure that we continue to get better at delivering services and treatment plans designed around patient needs.

Our vision is to create a digitally enabled organisation that supports the delivery of efficient and effective patient care, achieved through easy-to-use systems that provide staff and patients with access to the right information, in the right place, at the right time. To help us to achieve this vision, we are looking for passionate individuals to join our training team.

Main duties of the job
