Senior Analyst - Band 7

Are you an experienced analyst who wants to see your work directly influence nursing services, workforce planning and patient care?

We are creating an exciting new Band 7 Senior Analyst role within Corporate Nursing. Working closely with the Associate Director of Nursing and senior nursing leaders, you will turn complex information into clear insight that supports assurance, improvement and effective decision making.

The initial focus will be nursing and midwifery workforce intelligence. However, this is a flexible Corporate Nursing role which will respond to changing priorities across quality, safety, workforce, performance, service improvement and transformation.

This is an opportunity to shape a new role and make a visible difference. If you enjoy asking the right questions, finding the story behind the numbers and helping leaders make better decisions, we would love to hear from you.

Main duties of the job

You will bring together information from systems, people, services and finance to develop a joined up understanding of performance, demand, quality, outcomes and workforce across Corporate Nursing.

You will develop reports, dashboards and analysis that help senior leaders understand what is happening, why it is happening and where action may be required. You will identify trends, variation, risks and opportunities, undertake forecasting and modelling, and evaluate the impact of changes and improvement work.

You will provide analytical support across the wider Corporate Nursing portfolio in response to organisational priorities.

You will work with colleagues across nursing, quality, rostering, workforce, finance, digital and the wider Group analytical service to translate complex information into clear recommendations and meaningful action.

Lincolnshire Community Health Services NHS Trust (LCHS) and United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust (ULHT) have come together in a Group arrangement, with the goal of improving the care provided to patients across the county.

This will not constitute a formal merger of the two organisations, but will bring the Trusts together under a single Board and Executive Leadership Team, with the goal of improving the care that is provided to patients both in the community and in hospitals across Lincolnshire. Both Trusts will retain their separate statutory names and legal obligations.

The Group will be known as Lincolnshire Community and Hospitals NHS Group (LCHG).
