Electronic Patient Record (EPR) Programme Opportunity
Norfolk and Waveney Hospitals Group (NWUHG)
We have embarked on a significant programme to implement a single Electronic Patient Record (EPR) across the Norfolk and Waveney Hospitals Group (NWUHG) as part of the wider NHS digital transformation agenda.
The Collaborative Brings Together Three Acute Hospital Trusts
- James Paget University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (JPUH)
- Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (NNUH)
- The Queen Elizabeth Hospital King’s Lynn NHS Foundation Trust (QEH)
This programme represents a major strategic investment in improving patient care, safety, and operational efficiency across our system.
This is a unique opportunity to contribute your skills and expertise to a high-impact programme that will shape the future of healthcare delivery across Norfolk and Waveney. The EPR programme is central to our ambition to modernise services, enhance clinical outcomes, and support our workforce through improved digital capability.
This role will be within the Eastern Pathology Alliance (EPA) IT and will report and deliver LIMS and ICE changes, as well as coordinate testing with clinical leads for the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital on behalf of the EPR programme - working with colleagues across EPA, the EPR programme, and the Group’s pathology network.
The MEDITECH Expanse EPR programme depends on pathology ordering and resulting working correctly from day one. This post leads the pathology and Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) side of that delivery on behalf of the Eastern Pathology Alliance (EPA), for the EPR programme’s diagnostic integrations at the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
Reasons to use Rodeo

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You will project manage the lab changes implied by the EPR for one of the hospital sites: agreeing the detailed LIMS changes required, liasing with EPA CAB, planning and sequencing your work, changing and tracking LIMS configuration and supplier developments, and managing testing through to go-live and stabilisation. You will work flexibly in a team of three between EPA laboratory services, the EPR programme, Trust digital teams and the LIMS suppliers.
You will lead the alignment of the pathology test catalogue with the EPR build, including test and order set definitions, mapping and code assignment, add-on and reflex rules, specimen and container requirements, and result display expectations – working alongside the Pathology EPR Builder who undertakes the build in MEDITECH Expanse.
You will own the pathology test strategy and plan for orders and results integration, working with the EPR Test Manager, and will manage the pathology defect pipeline through to resolution. Ensuring that changes are made in a way that preserves laboratory quality standards, clinical safety and accreditation compliance.
