This is an exciting opportunity for a lead analytical developer to work closely with senior leaders in NHS England, as part of the Top of the Office (TOTO) Analytical Pool. The team sits within Operational Insights, under Data and Analytics. The aim of the TOTO Analytical Pool is to ensure that the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Chief Operating Officer (COO) have access to the data, analysis and insights that they need to do their jobs effectively.

Train and build capability within the pool on using the Federated Data Platform.
Work across the TOTO Analytical Pool, to support the analysts to extract and analyse data in the most efficient and effective way possible.
