Job description

The position is a 24-month fixed-term contract, which includes management and business skills training provided by the national KTP programme and a further £2k per annum dedicated training budget tailored towards your personal development.

With specialist support from the academic team at UWE Bristol, you will lead a 24-month project addressing challenges in implementing remote patient monitoring. This will help General Practices rapidly detect changes in patients’ health, reduce travel needs, empower self-care, and increase care efficiency while reducing clinician workloads. By undertaking this role, you will assist One Care in implementing the ‘3 shifts’ shaping the future of health and care: ‘hospital to community’, ‘analogue to digital’, and ‘treatment to prevention’.

• Deep understanding of diverse remote healthcare monitoring devices and assessment methods.
• Knowledge of data management software operation within General Practice (GP) settings.

• Ability to build strong, productive relationships across diverse backgrounds and roles.
