Job overview

We currently have a Senior Change Analyst vacancy in the Change Team in our busy and fast paced IDT department and would welcome applications from interested and motivated candidates who are up for a true challenge!

The Senior Change Analyst will support the ongoing process of change across the Trust relating to Cerner EPR and other applications’ optimisation and deployment. This includes clinical documentation and ePMA processes, and the establishment of electronic clinical pathways. These changes regularly impact on a large number of staff in the Trust and the post-holder will be responsible for helping minimise the expected disruption.

The Trust is part of a Group arrangement with Epsom & St Helier Hospitals which has committed to the development of a new shared domain which will make it easier for patients to be treated and for clinicians to work collaboratively across south-west London, Surrey and beyond. As this new shared EPR domain will be based on the current St George’s domain, it is anticipated that this role will support that development at St Georges.

Main duties of the job

This is essential for the delivery of these changes and to meet the vision and strategy of the Trust development of our EPR and related systems and applications.

• Be responsible for defining and gaining agreement on the scope and deliverables of change requests.
• Develop expert knowledge of electronic clinical documentation and the work processes required to use it effectively.
• Analyse existing work processes against the Trust process requirements.
• Design and implement new and effective processes in collaboration with the services, ensuring real engagement with clinical, managerial and administrative staff at the Trust.
• Engage appropriate organisational change management techniques to prepare, manage and support change processes in a manner which seeks to minimise disruption to day-to-day business that will affect large numbers of staff at the same point in time.
• To support effective communications processes, ensuring real engagement with clinical, managerial and administrative staff.
• Be able to quickly adapt to changing priorities, new challenges, and emerging opportunities in a fast-paced environment.
• Support and work collaboratively with Change Agents and Senior Change Analysts within the team.
