Job description
Role overview
The Christie is looking for a senior clinical digital leader to help drive excellence across patient care, research, and technology-enabled transformation. This role sits at the point where clinical practice and digital delivery meet, with responsibility for shaping how digital systems support safer, more effective, and higher-quality care.
As Chief Clinical Information Officer, you will provide strategic leadership for clinical digital work, ensuring that systems are designed, introduced, improved, and reviewed in line with the organisation’s priorities, national policy expectations, and patient safety standards.
This is a prominent leadership position within the Digital Services senior team and the nursing leadership framework. You will oversee the clinical digital transformation function, including digital nurses, and work closely with clinical, operational, and digital colleagues to make sure services and systems are practical, safe, and effective in supporting better outcomes.

The organisation delivers radiotherapy through one of the world’s largest radiotherapy departments, provides chemotherapy on site and through 14 partner hospitals, and offers highly specialised surgery for complex and rare cancers alongside a broad range of diagnostic and support services.
It is also recognised internationally for research, with a century of breakthrough work behind it.
