The post holder will quickly develop credibility within the organisation and be able to develop and maintain effective working relationships, particularly with those impacted by the change, and with senior project and clinical leads.
The post holder will have a key role in ensuring internal and external stakeholders are engaged early and able to support project delivery timescales.
The post holder supports Digital Transformation and Countywide IT Service in the delivery of client I.T. programmes, often taking the lead on workstreams that form part of a larger programme, to deliver specific project objectives. This will be achieved by working under the guidance of senior project colleagues or project sponsor. The post holder will therefore need to cope with working with varied senior managers and clinical leads, sometimes with competing priorities.

In some cases, there will be no procedures to follow and may be guided by information sources on the internet.
