**Where you'll be working**
Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Hospital (HKH) is a newly built hospital and you will collaborate with colleagues to enhance the realisation of benefits that come with new facilities and resulting models of care. We are also building the final phase of our hospital expansion and this includes offering renal dialysis and chemotherapy services for the first time at Hornsby, so you will play a key role in the design of these models of care. We have an open plan team based working spaces on L5 as part of the Executive Unit. We also have great sunsets over our lovely bushland.

**What you'll be doing**

Working closely with the Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Executive and leaders across Hornsby Ku-ring-gai to craft compelling cases for change that improves patient experience of care (quality and satisfaction), improves the health of our local community, provides better value for money and are sustainable, increases accessibility to our services, increases patient and staff safety and develops and motivates our staff.

Key will be your ability to work closely with Hornsby Ku-ring-gai clinicians to guide them on how to structure their clinical redesign projects and persevere when the challenges to innovate seem insurmountable. You will know you have succeeded when staff come to you with ideas and are able to structure projects well, implement their solutions and share the benefits achieved. Over time your work will be less hands on and more consultancy style.

So if you enjoy a challenge and are motivated to showcase innovations that result through your work, this is a great opportunity.
