An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the diverse and dynamic Clinical IT systems training team.

Working alongside our Clinical Systems Management team, we are responsible for a comprehensive programme of high-quality training supporting in excess of 6,000 clinical and non-clinical staff.

We play a pivotal role in supporting the digital transformation programme of works to create a single point of access to patients’ healthcare records as a result of the ongoing implementation and development of new Sunrise ePR system.

Our teams currently work flexibly, from home and from any MTW site, including satellite services. This is likely to become a permanent way of working.

The main focus of the role is the creation and development of eLearning packages for all our systems. Existing knowledge of Captivate and Cantasia software is an advantage, but training can be given. You will have knowledge and experience of clinical and non-clinical systems with the ability to learn new systems.

You will assist with delivering the training via a variety of guises, such as face-to-face, and Microsoft Teams. You will also be involved in the system testing of new and upgraded IT systems prior to their deployment.

Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust is a large acute hospital Trust in the county of Kent.

The Trust provides a full range of general hospital services and some areas of specialist complex care to around 760,000 people living in the south part of West Kent and the north part of East Sussex.

The Trust’s core catchment areas are Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells and their surrounding boroughs. We work from two main clinical sites: Maidstone Hospital and Tunbridge Wells Hospital at Pembury. Tunbridge Wells Hospital opened in 2011 and provides single rooms with en-suites for all in-patients – the first of its kind in the country.

We employ more than 7,000 full and part-time staff in a huge range of clinical and non-clinical roles across both of our hospital sites.

Once your pre-employment checks have been completed you will be contacted by Recruitment to arrange your start date which will be in line with one of our Corporate Inductions.

At MTW, we seek to develop a culture where everyone can reach their full potential with opportunities to grow and develop their career. We recognise and value the unique contributions that each of our staff bring, delivering the best quality care and service to our patients. We are committed to being a diverse employer and strive to reflect everyone in our local communities. We welcome applications from people of diverse backgrounds, perspectives and experiences and celebrate the diversity of thought, viewpoints and ideas that will make our Trust the best place to work.
