EPR Programme Manager

About the role

We are currently seeking an EPR Programme Manager to join us on a full-time basis. Reporting to the Head of Programme Delivery UK, you will lead the end-to-end delivery of complex EPR deployments into acute hospital environments. This hands-on, delivery-focused role combines programme leadership, clinical transformation awareness and technical delivery oversight to ensure safe, effective go-lives and sustainable adoption. You will be accountable for governance, delivery assurance and outcomes across multiple workstreams, working closely with key customer stakeholders to ensure successful delivery and adoption.

Due to the location of the customer, we would ideally like the successful applicant to be based in the Southeast of England, or within reasonable travelling distance of Sussex, to support on-site engagement as required.

Day to day you will:

• Lead EPR programmes from inception through go-live, stabilisation and BAU transition, coordinating multiple workstreams and delivery teams.
• Establish and run programme governance (working groups, checkpoints), maintaining clear risk and issue management, reporting, and decision-making across customer and internal stakeholders.
• Partner with acute clinical and operational leaders to deliver clinical readiness, training, adoption, and safe cutover planning, ensuring minimal disruption to hospital operations.
• Oversee core delivery components such as integrations, data migration and quality readiness, testing cycles (including UAT), and release/go-live planning.
• Ensure delivery aligns to Alcidion processes and relevant quality, security and risk standards (ISO9001, ISO27001 and ISO31000).

Also on offer are:

• A range of leave options, including gender neutral paid parental leave and miscarriage leave
• Health and wellbeing schemes and initiatives
• Financial perks and discounts.
