Job summary
Digital Operations and Service Management (DOSM) sits within the Technology Digital and Data Directorate of the new NHS England.
The Technology Digital and Data Directorate vision is to deliver the best care and outcomes for the NHS and people that it serves, by improving population health and patient pathways, rapidly adopting effective technologies, building on insights from data and cutting-edge research, and by transforming the way that care is delivered.
DOSM operates and manages business critical infrastructure, and digital and data services, that underpin the health and social care system. We ensure the highest levels of reliability and availability of national digital and technology services, so that they can be relied upon by the NHS and social care system.
Our aim is to prevent system disruption but, if it does occur, to restore service as quickly as possible. We coordinate complex operational activities across environments, teams and organisations in order to achieve this.
Main duties of the job
- Lead the operational service management of the Genomics service, ensuring it is safe, resilient, effective and aligned to NHS England service management standards.
- Work closely with the Service Manager on day-to-day operational service management, ensuring clear ownership, governance and escalation routes are in place.
- Manage incident, major incident, problem, change and service transition processes for the Genomics service.
- Ensure new and changed Genomics capabilities are operationally ready, with appropriate support models, documentation, monitoring and reporting in place.
- Monitor service performance against agreed measures, identifying risks, trends and areas for improvement.
- Drive continual service improvement, ensuring lessons learned are embedded and recurring issues are addressed.
- Work collaboratively with product, delivery, technical, clinical, commercial and supplier teams to manage service risks and resolve issues.
- Ensure the Genomics service continues to meet user, clinical and operational needs.
About us
NHS England has a wide range of statutory functions, responsibilities and regulatory powers. These are focused on supporting the wider NHS to deliver high quality care, as well as doing those things that are best done once for the whole NHS.
Our staff bring expertise across clinical, operational, commissioning, technology, data science, cyber security, software engineering, education, and commercial specialisms -- enabling us to design and deliver high-quality NHS services.
In March 2025,the Government announced that NHS England and the Department of Health and Social Care will increasingly merge functions, ultimately leading to NHS England being fully integrated into the department.
If you currently work within the NHS and if successful at interview, we will initiate an Inter Authority Transfer (IAT) via the Electronic Staff Record (ESR). This retrieves key data from your current or previous NHS employer to support onboarding, including competency status, Continuous Service Dates (CSD), and annual leave entitlement. You may opt out at any stage of the process.
Colleagues with a contractual office base are expected to spend, on average, at least 40% of their time working in our offices.
Staff recruited from outside the NHS will usually be appointed at the bottom of the pay band.
We cannot offer visa sponsorship for any vacancies.

This includes overseeing progress against the ICB's core "must-do" requirements while maintaining a sharp focus on longer-term transformation and system development. The Clinical Lead ensures that delivery is underpinned by robust governance, effective performance management, and strong collaboration across providers, local authorities, and the voluntary sector.
The Clinical Lead also leads and influences continuous improvement across the systemembedding a culture of learning, innovation, and accountability. They are responsible for ensuring that improvement methodologies are applied consistently, that data and insight drive decision-making, and that barriers to delivery are identified and addressed swiftly. Through effective leadership, partnership working, and a clear focus on outcomes, the Clinical Lead ensures that the ICB delivers both its statutory responsibilities and its wider strategic ambitions, supporting sustainable, high-quality care for all.
Ultimately, the Clinical Lead acts as a trusted Associate Clinician to the Director, providing leadership, resilience, and strategic capacity to the senior team.

Senior People Services Transformation Lead - Clinical Education
NHS England View all jobs
Posted 1 month(s) ago
Reference: 990-PPL-EC5091-E-CE
Job summary
The NHS Transforming People Services (TPS) programme sits at the heart of delivering the NHS 10 Year Health Plan -- creating a workforce that is empowered, flexible and digitally enabled to meet the evolving needs of patients and communities. The ambition contained within the 10 Year Health Plan is to deliver a Digital 1st Strategy which will enable staff to access People services anytime and anyplace, to book annual leave, or onboard to a new organisation digitally, with virtual assistants to improve both staff and manager experience. This ambition will be delivered through the Transforming people Services Programme.
Being part of this programme is more than a transformation role; it is an opportunity to redefine how people services are delivered across the NHS and directly influence the experience of one of the largest workforces in the world.
As a Senior People Services Transformation Lead for Clinical Education, you will join one of the NHS's most ambitious and high-profile transformation programmes, working at the centre of a nationally significant agenda to modernise people services for the future. You will help design and deliver innovative, user-centric and digitally enabled clinical education services that improve staff experience, enable people professionals to focus on matters to the business whilst achieving increased operational efficiency and productivity, support better outcomes for staff, patients and communities across the country.
Main duties of the job
You will play a key role in bringing together operational expertise, policy, service design and digital capability to redesign how people services are experienced and delivered across the NHS.
We are looking for ambitious, collaborative and delivery-focused service design experts who thrive in complexity and are passionate about improving public services. The ideal candidate will bring:
- Leadership leading complex transformation, service improvement or workforce redesign programmes within large or complex organisations
- Strong understanding of HR, workforce or people services, with experience designing user-centred and digitally enabled service models
- Experience of bringing together experts and customers to develop a service or function
Working within the Service Design Team, you will collaborate with specialists and customers from across the NHS to shape future operating models and redesign how people services work at scale. This is a rare opportunity to influence strategic decisions, lead meaningful change and see the direct impact of your work across the health system.
Most importantly, you will be part of a team delivering change that improves the experience of the NHS workforce and supporting better outcomes for patients and communities nationwide.
About us
NHS England has a wide range of statutory functions, responsibilities and regulatory powers. These are focused on supporting the wider NHS to deliver high quality care, as well as doing those things that are best done once for the whole NHS.
Our staff bring expertise across clinical, operational, commissioning, technology, data science, cyber security, software engineering, education, and commercial specialisms -- enabling us to design and deliver high-quality NHS services.
In March 2025, the Government announced that NHS England and the Department of Health and Social Care will increasingly merge functions, ultimately leading to NHS England being fully integrated into the department.
If you currently work within the NHS and if successful at interview, we will initiate an Inter Authority Transfer (IAT) via the Electronic Staff Record (ESR).This retrieves key data from your current or previous NHS employer to support onboarding, including competency status, Continuous Service Dates (CSD), and annual leave entitlement. You may opt out at any stage of the process.
Colleagues with a contractual office base are expected to spend, on average, at least 40% of their time working in our offices.
Staff recruited from outside the NHS will usually be appointed at the bottom of the pay band.
We cannot offer visa sponsorship for any vacancies.
