This is an exciting opportunity to join a UK leading digital health team to work on implementing a new intervention in practice. The digital intervention ‘Active Lives’ helps older adults to safely increase physical activity to protect and improve their health and wellbeing. The project will involve working with collaborators in the NHS, Public Health, AHSNs, charities, community groups, the voluntary sector and industry to influence change and embed this new intervention in practice. Experience of working with one or more of these organisations would be beneficial. 

We are looking for an enthusiastic and skilled communicator, with experience of change management, influencing organisations and project management to lead the day to day management of this project. You will join a multi-disciplinary team of clinicians, researchers and implementation specialists. We will also be conducting a service evaluation and qualitative research alongside the implementation of active lives, so skills in data collection and basic analysis would be advantageous (although training is available).  

Flexible working patterns are available. The work can be conducted largely from home; only occasional in-person meetings may be required.
