As our highly valued Digital Health Officer, you’ll use your IT and technical skills to accompany our healthcare providers and their staff in their Digital Health journey and all its opportunities and challenges. 

You’ll make an impact at scale by:  

• Provide remote support and conduct practice/site visits as required providing relevant software installation, training and support to general practitioners, allied health, specialists, pharmacies, other health care providers and their staff.  
• Contribute to the development and improvement of SWSPHN Digital Health programs and projects delivery and the promotion of such programs and projects to providers. 
• Deliver the requirements of internal projects as well as collaborations with external stakeholders 

To succeed in this role, you will have:

• Strong IT and technical skills 
• Familiarity with the role of technology in healthcare 
• Knowledge of the various Federal and State Digital Health initiatives  
• Drive to find the best way to bring innovative solutions to our healthcare providers and consumers 

We’re a values-driven organisation that treats you as a whole person and values your unique contribution.  

What we do isn’t easy, and there are lots of moving parts. But we’re invested in our region’s health, and in your wellbeing.  

Here are some of the things we hope you’ll love about working with us:

Work with kind, talented people who are passionate about primary health.  

We know that so much of how you feel at work depends on the colleagues around you. At SWSPHN, you’ll belong to a team of incredibly good, supportive and passionate people who get stuck in and make a difference, together.
