Secondment opportunities: ‘Learning from Local’ Digital Networks
Initial 6-month roles available
The AHSN Network has submitted two proposals to NHS England to support Digital Networks (one around Bed Management and the other one for running the Global Digital Exemplar Specialist Networks). Listed below are several opportunities for secondments (both full and part time) to deliver these projects. The idea is to create a virtual team with members from across the AHSNs, as well as a number of partners and externals.
To express an interest in any of these roles, please contact Juan Yanguela at the Health Innovation Network (AHSN for South London) by Friday 14 December 2018.
