EPR Configuration Manager - Interoperability

Job overview

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the EPR Team that supports the shared instance of Epic for Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) and The Royal Marsden Hospital (RMH).

GOSH is one of the most digitally advanced Trusts in the UK and in Europe, accredited with the first HIMSS level 7 Hospital in Europe for Outpatients.  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.   In March 2023 GOSH became the first Epic Connect site in the UK, sharing it's EPR platform with The Royal Marsden Hospital.

To help us to achieve this vision, we are looking for a passionate individual to lead the  configuration and ongoing development of Epic's interoperability applications - MyChart, CareEverywhere and EpicCare Link across GOSH and RMH.

Working in close collaboration and partnership with the Ambulatory Configuration Manager, you will jointly lead a team of analysts to deliver BAU and ongoing optimisation in these areas.  This post will provide cross organisation coordination and overview technical knowledge of the applications, as well as supporting the development of operational BAU processes and providing a point of escalation for arising issues across the joint team.

Main duties of the job

The successful candidate must have a strong track record in Epic configuration in any application, and ideally will have experience of managing a team of analysts.  You will be able to demonstrate expert knowledge and experience of developing pathways and processes that you will use to support the configuration of the interoperability applications and work with stakeholders across the Trusts.

You should be experienced in managing projects, or areas within complex working environments and supporting change programmes. You will be expected to present highly complex build work (EPR software) in an easy-to-understand format to individuals and/or large groups of Programme and/or Trust staff, including at senior and director level.  Much of this work requires close collaborative and co-ordinated working with a range of colleagues across the Trusts, including the Connect EPR team, our partners at RMH and with EPR supplier Epic.

If not already certified in one of the Epic interoperability applications, you must be prepared to undertake training and, within five months of start date, become qualified in at least one of the relevant applications.

Post-pandemic our team will continue to work flexibly with a combination of remote and office based working days. The successful candidate will be required to travel to all GOSH and RMH sites (Bloomsbury, Chelsea and Sutton).
