Health Innovation East has an exciting opportunity for a Data Manager to join our rapidly expanding Health Informatics team. The Health Informatics team has specialist skills in delivering complex, technical programmes of work that include providing secure environments for storing and accessing health and other sensitive data to support health and care delivery, research, and innovation.
We are looking for someone who has expertise in Machine Learning (ML) or Artificial Intelligence (AI) models to develop rapid risk assessment tools for ML/AI training on sensitive data, with experience in database management, data cataloguing, monitoring and maintaining data pipelines.
This is a chance to join a fast growing, dynamic company. Citizens, academia, health services and industry achieve more working together than in isolation. As part of a national network, we make this happen by bringing together all partners in the health sector, to develop and deliver innovative care. We are an independent company funded mostly through public money from the NHS, but we work with a wide range of innovative organisations in the public and private sectors.
This post is based in our Cambridge office, with opportunities for hybrid working. Flexible working hours compatible with the role can be considered (including the possibility of working part time). There will be a requirement to attend some in-person meetings both within the Eastern region and nationally.
Salary and benefits
We offer, in addition to a competitive salary, a pension scheme with up to 10% matching company contributions, access to an employee assistance programme, learning & development opportunities, and 27 days paid leave in addition to bank holidays.

We really encourage applications from suitably qualified candidates, particularly from diverse backgrounds, so that we truly represent the rich diversity of our region. Please consider filling in an equality and diversity monitoring form.
