Head of Digital Services

Welcome

Thank you for your interest in this new and exciting Head of Digital Services post within St Columba’s Hospice Care.

We’re a local charity providing specialist care and support to people who are affected by a life-limiting illness and our patients and their families are at the heart of everything we do.

St Columba’s Hospice Care launched their most recent strategy ‘the strength behind our stories’ in October 2024. Within this, the organisation has an exciting 3 years ahead embedding recent service growth and identifying areas where we are not meeting people’s needs. We are focusing on recruiting and developing an innovative and passionate team to support our work and looking at the sustainability of the Charity long into the future. One key development priority is harnessing the power of technology to innovate and enhance our services and wider business needs including exploring the possibilities that AI brings. This new role will work alongside the leadership team, reporting directly to the CEO, advising and supporting us through our digital transformation plans including the development of our digital strategy.

We are looking for someone who is passionate about digital technology but can engage widely with others taking the whole team with you through this journey. We are seeking someone with strategic development experience used to working at a senior level, leading a small team  but who has the ability to explain complex systems in very basic ways. If you believe this may be you please contact Jackie Stone, CEO at jstone@stcolumbashospice.org.uk for an informal discussion.
