Description

This is an exciting opportunity to help shape the future of health and care through AI.

The 10 Year Health Plan represents one of the biggest transformations in the history of the NHS, with AI central to creating smarter, more responsive services. As a Lead Delivery Manager (AI Portfolio), you'll sit at the heart of this transformation, combining senior delivery expertise with strong AI, data and digital knowledge to turn ambitious ideas into safe, effective services at scale.

You will:

  • Lead delivery across a portfolio of AI-enabled products or services from discovery through to live operation
  • Enable multidisciplinary teams to deliver value using agile, lean and user-centred ways of working
  • Work with product, clinical, operational, technical and supplier stakeholders to turn priorities and user needs into clear delivery plans, roadmaps and success measures
  • Manage delivery plans, milestones, risks, issues, dependencies, blockers and performance reporting across multiple workstreams
  • Support products and services through governance, assurance and approval processes
  • Ensure appropriate consideration of clinical safety, information governance, cyber security, accessibility, responsible AI, adoption and live-service support
  • Manage delivery risks associated with AI-enabled services, including data readiness, model performance, user trust, monitoring and operational readiness
  • Coordinate stakeholders across health and care organisations, suppliers and partner teams to support implementation, adoption and continuous improvement
  • Build and sustain effective multidisciplinary teams, adapting team structures and ways of working to meet delivery needs

The ideal candidate will have:

  • Extensive experience of applying agile values and principles and lean thinking into practice to enable a multi-disciplinary user-centred development team and/or team of teams, to successfully deliver value through digital features or a product or service
  • Educated to master's level or equivalent qualification/delivery experience
