Job description

Implementation Consultant - NHS EPR/EMR (Contract)

Rate: £350-£400 per day (Outside IR35)

Contract: 6 months initial

Location: London - 2 days per week on site (hybrid)

The Role

We are supporting a national NHS data and operations programme and are looking for Implementation Consultants with strong EPR/EMR experience to work alongside NHS trusts on the delivery of operational and Pathway-level improvements.

This role sits at the intersection of clinical systems, operational delivery, and data-enabled decision making. You will work closely with trust teams to translate real-world workflows into practical, usable tools that support service improvement and elective recovery.

What You'll Be Doing

• Supporting NHS trusts with EPR/EMR implementation, optimisation, and adoption
• Working with clinical, operational, and informatics stakeholders to map pathways and workflows
• Translating EPR data and operational processes into clear, actionable requirements
• Supporting trust teams through change, go-live activity, and early benefits realisation
• Acting as a credible on-site presence with clinicians, managers, and digital teams
• Feeding real-world operational insight into a wider national delivery team

What We're Looking For

• Demonstrable experience delivering NHS EPR/EMR implementations or optimisations
• Strong understanding of NHS operational pathways (e.g. elective, RTT, theatres, patient flow, discharge, cancer)
• Experience working directly with trust-level clinical and operational stakeholders
• Confidence navigating messy data, imperfect systems, and real-world constraints
• Comfortable working in fast-moving, outcomes-focused delivery environments

Desirable (but not essential)

• Experience with Palantir, Epic, Cerner/Oracle Health, EMIS, TPP SystmOne, or Lorenzo
• Background in NHS informatics, BI, or CSU environments
• Exposure to national or multi-trust programmes
• Basic data literacy (e.g. reporting, SQL, data quality)

Why This Role

• High-impact work on a nationally significant NHS programme
• Opportunity to influence real operational change, not just produce documentation
• Collaborative delivery environment with experienced NHS transformation professionals
• Clear scope, pragmatic delivery, and strong trust engagement

Contract Details

• Rate: £350-£400 per day (Outside IR35)
• Duration: 6 months initially (extension likely)
• Location: London - 2 days per week on site
• Start: ASAP/short notice preferred
