Job summary

We are looking for an experienced developer to join our team as Senior Informatics Developer.

We do however welcome applications from candidates with expertise in one area and an interest in the other.

The data warehouse side of the role will be contributing to the development of the next phase of our established data warehouse.

  • Monitor and maintain existing data warehouse infrastructure to ensure continuous and reliable information systems availability
  • Maintain and support existing web applications
  • Develop new web applications, working with clinical and other colleagues across the Trust

The post-holder will have the opportunity to work closely with, and develop a good knowledge and understanding of, an interesting range of NHS services, for example:

  • Maternity
  • Gynaecology
  • Theatres and Surgery
  • Medicine
  • Emergency Department
  • Mental Health
