Healthroster Lead - Medics

This is an exciting opportunity to join our e-Rostering Team within People & Culture based at East Surrey Hospital.

This comes at an exciting time for the team as we are beginning the process of implementing Medics with e-Rostering. The new role of Healthroster Lead for Medics will be a key partner in the success of the project.

The successful candidate would be responsible for the Medical eRostering team and function across East Surrey Hospital and our other sites at Crawley and Horsham. This particular role focuses on implementing our medical rosters at SASH where we are rolling out an extensive change programme to extend Healthroster functionality to our doctors and improving workforce planning and deployment practices.

This would be a fantastic opportunity for someone with knowledge and experience of the Healthroster system, Medical rota management and/or rostering best practice. The successful candidate should have the interpersonal skills to establish good working relationships with our divisional leadership teams and senior medical staff. Ideally, they should also have a working knowledge of NHS medical terms and conditions (for example roster compliance with junior doctor contractual terms and conditions). However, training will be provided on all specific aspects.

Here at Surrey and Sussex NHS Trust our people are pivotal to all we do, we live our Trust values and make team working a reality for each of our colleagues every day.
