  • Ensure technical solutions align with the Trust’s EPR roadmap, including integration with platforms.

  • Provide subject matter expertise and procedural guidance in build meetings, huddles, and design handover sessions.

  • Co-author options papers and contribute to strategic technical design decisions.

    Essential Skills & Experience:

  • Proven Solution Design and Integration Design expertise.

  • Strong grasp of Enterprise Architecture and healthcare IT systems.

  • Experience translating complex business processes into system design.

  • Familiarity with NHS Trusts, EPR programmes, and integration standards.

  • Competence in design documentation and stakeholder communication.

  • Empathetic and proactive approach to stakeholder and supplier engagement.

  • Strong ability to validate cross-programme process alignment (e.g., data migration, infrastructure).

    Key Deliverables (Months 1–3):

  • Future-state process mapping and technical validation.

  • Specification of system integration touchpoints

  • Creation of design artefacts to feed the overall Solution Design Document and EPR Blueprint.

  • Contribution to role-based access control documentation and options papers.

  • Participation in governance meetings, status reporting, and decision support.

  • Post-design handover support and issue resolution.

    If you're a technically astute, solutions-oriented professional with experience in NHS transformation programmes and a collaborative mindset, I’d love to hear from you.

Veterans in Cloud Computing: A Military‑to‑Civilian Pathway into Cloud Careers

Introduction The United Kingdom’s public‑cloud market will exceed £45 billion by 2026 (Gartner forecast), fuelled by government digital‑service mandates, fintech scale‑ups, and the MOD’s own Cloud Strategic Roadmap 2025. From hybrid defence networks to NHS electronic health records, almost every mission‑critical workload is moving to AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud Platform (GCP). That explosive demand collides with a nationwide skills shortage—over 135,000 unfilled cloud roles in 2024, according to TechUK. Veterans already possess the security clearances, network know‑how, and operational discipline that cloud employers crave. This guide shows you how to translate your military experience into cloud‑native language, leverage Ministry of Defence (MoD) transition funding, and secure a rewarding second career (with salaries starting at £40k and rising above £100k for cleared DevSecOps leads).
