Job details

The role: 

Queensland Health recognises that progressing our digital health strategy is an essential part of our ongoing commitment to delivering safe, effective, and accessible healthcare to all Queenslanders.

Implementing an integrated electronic Medical Record (ieMR) across all public hospitals in Queensland is at the heart of our digital transformation and is essential to delivering care, closer to home.  Already used in numerous facilities today, the ieMR is improving care and patient outcomes by offering Queensland Health clinicians access to real-time clinical information for their patients, at point of care.

Queensland Health is currently undertaking several of the largest health ICT programs and projects ever seen in Australia. The largest of these, the Digital Hospital Program (DHP) is a visionary program that continues to enable clinical services and enhance our technological capability by extending the availability of the ieMR into more hospitals and community care venues. The Digital Hospital Program will deliver advanced ieMR to 5 Metro North Hospitals over the first 5 years. In parallel Queensland Health will be adding over 2,811 additional hospital beds across the state, with four entirely new hospitals and expansions to 11 already world-class facilities.

This program represents an opportunity for you to make your mark on the future of healthcare and help to shape the future of health centres across Queensland, for Queenslanders for generations to come. 

As a Principal Business Analyst, you will play a key role in leading and managing the analysis, documentation, and evaluation of both current and future state business processes, services, and roles within a complex digital system in a clinical healthcare environment.
