Stand by, we'll show you...
The Office of Data & Analytics' mission is to deliver insight through innovation in data and analytics services and its key function is to provide reporting and analytics to support patient care, quality, performance, financial flows and service development.
To underpin these objectives, the Data Engineering Teams' purpose is to firstly build, develop and assure the Trusts Data Platform and secondly to use modern technologies, tools & techniques to leverage this asset for the organisation.
The Data Engineering Operations Manager will drive, support and prioritise the development and delivery of Data Warehousing, Reporting and Analytics output. The Data Engineering Operations Manager will be a strong communicator within the team. The Data Engineering Operations Manager is a pivotal role communicating operational issues bi-directionally between Data Engineering and their stakeholders.
It is essential that the Data Engineering Operations Manager has previous experience within an NHS Informatics Department. Additional knowledge of Data Warehousing would be advantageous, but not essential. The role can be fast paced and would suit an individual that thrives on pressure, managing this with organisation and prioritisation skills, whilst developing leadership skills through this varied role.
The Data Engineering Operations Manager is tasked with the Operational Management of the Data Engineering Team. This is comprised of the management of the business-as-usual functions alongside the project management of key transformation projects through collaborative groups within key programmes of work.
The Data Engineering Operations Manager will be required to work integrally between the Data Engineering Team, their stakeholders and other senior managers across the organisation to ensure delivery of all elements of an innovative Data Engineering Service. Whilst not technical in nature, the post holder will understand technical problems and their solutions and be able to communicate them simply and clearly to key stakeholders.
The post holder will provide leadership, support and guidance to the Data Engineering Team who are responsible for the collation, storage and integration of the Trusts data as a Single Version of the Truth. The post holder will be responsible for managing and delivering projects that accomplish this aim, balanced with the prioritisation of urgent reactive work. The post holder will maintain grip and control of this vital equilibrium and will communicate and escalate accordingly.
