About Us

We are representing a UK-based healthcare technology company dedicated to enhancing the efficiency of the NHS. Our flagship product is an asset tracking platform that enables hospitals and healthcare providers to locate essential medical equipment swiftly and effortlessly. This innovation not only saves time and reduces stress for staff but also allows them to focus more on patient care. Our technology has already demonstrated significant impact, saving the NHS the equivalent time of over 1,300 nurses per year and achieving a £43 million saving over five years from just a £1.5 million investment.

We are on a mission to help the NHS work smarter, not harder — and we are seeking a strategic, passionate CIO to lead this initiative.

The Role

This is not your typical CIO role. We are looking for a confident, NHS-savvy leader who can champion our technology across NHS organisations while ensuring the platform is technically sound, scalable, and NHS-compliant. Your primary focus will be on time savings – helping NHS Trusts and Integrated Care Systems (ICSs) adopt a solution that makes a measurable difference to staff workload and system efficiency.

Key Responsibilities

? NHS Engagement

• Serve as the external-facing tech leader, presenting our solution to NHS CIOs, ICS leads, and procurement teams.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with NHS stakeholders and decision-makers.
• Translate the platform’s benefits into clear NHS-focused outcomes (time saved, care improved, cost reduced).
• Shape and lead the overall technology strategy to support NHS roll-out.
• Ensure systems are compliant with NHS standards (e.g., FHIR, DSPT, IG Toolkit).
• Oversee data security, interoperability, and scalability.

? Evidence & Insight

• Support the development of strong business cases for NHS adoption using real-world data and pilot results.
• Help internal teams refine the product and strategy based on NHS feedback and needs.
• Work closely with the CEO, Product, Commercial, and Legal teams to align tech delivery with business goals.
• Represent the company in NHS innovation forums, digital transformation groups, and potential bid processes.

Who We’re Looking For

• Experience working with or within the NHS in a digital or IT leadership role.
• Strong understanding of NHS structures, digital priorities, and stakeholder groups.
• Passion for improving healthcare systems, especially through time-saving innovation.
• Excellent communication skills – able to engage NHS leaders confidently and clearly.
• Available to start quickly and work independently in a fully remote setup.
• Experience in health tech, asset tracking, RFID, or similar digital platforms.
• Familiarity with NHS frameworks like What Good Looks Like (WGLL), Scan4Safety, or NHSX priorities.
• Previous involvement in NHS procurement or digital transformation programmes.
