Job summary

Are you ready to shape the future of digital healthcare? We're seeking a Apprentice Training Officer to deliver impactful training across the Trust. This is your chance to combine leadership, technical insight, and a passion for education in a role that truly makes a difference.

With the support of our Training & Development officers you will:

  • Deliver digital systems training courses to staff across the Trust, following structured lesson plans and schedules
  • Evaluate software upgrades, update documentation, and escalate development needs when required
  • Promote digital systems and respond to training-related enquiries

As part of this role, you will be able to complete the Learning and Skills Teacher Level 5 Apprenticeship. This nationally recognised qualification will equip you with advanced teaching and learning skills tailored to professional environments.

Main duties of the job

In this role, you'll be responsible for creating and delivering engaging training materials - from lesson plans and user guides to videos and eLearning. You'll lead face-to-face and virtual sessions, provide floorwalking support, and ensure staff feel confident using Core Systems like Lorenzo, NHS e-RS, BadgerNet and ORMIS.

  • Motivate and coach users across all levels
  • Assess performance and provide tailored feedback
  • Evaluate software upgrades and update training content
  • Plan and organise training sessions and inductions
  • Maintain IT equipment and ensure accurate data setup
  • Contribute to policy development and promote best practices

This role requires strong people skills, a focus on process-based training, and the ability to work both independently and as part of a team. Flexibility is key, as you'll support a 24/7 organisation across hospital and community sites.
