Quality & Risk Digital System Transition Manager

North Bristol NHS Trust is transitioning the majority of its Quality systems from Datix (and other systems) into a new platform, Radar Healthcare, but will be retaining the Datix risk module.

Radar Healthcare system is currently live with 14 events or modules, with further Go lives planned during 2025, most notably, Incident Management (all types) and Mortality reviews. There will also be other smaller event types added.

The Radar Programme is overseen by a small team who have managed the programme and support the Business As Usual modules already in operation.

However, the Datix system expertise supporting the risk module and the legacy incident elements of the Datix system no longer exists and this presents risks whilst finalising the transition for the incident module and also whilst needing to sustain/develop the risk management module (risk register).

This role will sit within the Quality Governance Systems team, which reports into the Director of Quality Governance for the Trust.

It is a 6 month Fixed Term Contract and will also provide the postholder the opportunity to interact with and develop skills using the innovative Radar Healthcare digital system.

Main duties of the job

We are looking for strong expertise in the management of Datix systems within the NHS acute sector and the ability to support 'business as usual' functioning, adaptation of existing modules (for example risk, incidents and action plans) and to support the cut across work required for system migration to Radar for incidents during 2025.

The Trust has migrated to using the Microsoft Power BI reporting system during 2024 and we are now utilising that significantly for quality governance data interfacing and reporting. Therefore Power BI expertise is also advantageous in this role - working with our QG systems analyst and the wider digital team within the trust..

Flexible working is available,, with 2 days per week on site presence to build strong working relationships quickly and optimise effectiveness in the role interacting with patient safety, risk and Quality governance systems teams.
