This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a pan-organisational approach to service and pathway improvement in cancer services.
The Cancer Services team at West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust is looking for a project manager to support the delivery of our cancer improvement programme.
Based within the cancer services team, the post holder will be responsible for the day-to-day management of key improvement projects that will drive quality and performance improvement in cancer services across multiple divisions and services at West Herts. One of the key projects will be Targeted Lung Health Checks as part of the national roll out.
This is an excellent opportunity to develop and showcase skills in managing change and delivering exciting improvements across cancer pathways.
Working across divisions, the post holder will hold a portfolio of projects within the Cancer Improvement Programme and be expected to work closely with operational, clinical and nursing leads to deliver agreed improvement plans and to implement changes to services and across pathways.
You will be expected to work autonomously, establishing relationships with key stakeholders and working within a project management framework to deliver plans at pace to generate change and improved performance.
A key component of the role will also be to establish and maintain good governance and processes regarding project and programme coordination, ensuring there is control and consistency to all of the projects within the programme.
This role would suit those with experience of service change and change management, seeking to expand and develop their skills in service improvement and project management.
