Healthcare Informatics Consultant - Senior Consultant To Director
EY - Ernst & Young Global Limited , United Arab Emirates
Job Description
Do you want to help transform the delivery of healthcare to millions of people?
The EY MENA health team is expanding. We have opportunities for experienced Digital Healthcare/Healthcare Informatics Consultants at all levels from Senior Consultant to Director. These roles are focused on the healthcare market and based within our Technology Consulting practice.
Technology is transforming healthcare delivery and enabling new business and care delivery models. With new markets opening and technology advancing faster than ever, the healthcare technology space is becoming increasingly complex. Our clients rely on effective, sustainable, technology solutions, and they look to us to facilitate their needs. In Technology Consulting, you’ll use your analytical knowledge to streamline everything from Technology Strategy, Processes, designing and implementing solutions in our Technology Consulting team. In return, you’ll receive all the training you need to solve some of the most complex business issues around.
Operating specifically and most frequently in the healthcare sector, you will help our healthcare clients transform their Digital landscape, using new technologies and new approaches to healthcare, to change how patients are treated in hospital and at home. As well as operating in the health sector, you will be a full member of our cross-sector Technology Consulting team and will have the opportunity to develop your career by working with clients across a wide range of sectors, in addition to healthcare.
Your key responsibilities
Your key responsibility is to help our clients improve and, by doing so, to serve patients better. You’re likely to spend most of your time directly influencing and engaging our clients, designing their transformation programs with them and supporting and coaching their staff as they implement change. You will look to identifying and mitigating potential risks, while leveraging opportunities to make our clients’ services better. We’ll also look to you to improve performance by identifying areas for development within their current processes and practices. You’ll be working on complex projects for some of the most well-known clients in healthcare in MENA and potentially, also, across other industries.
In addition, you are expected to perform complete analyses within the scope of the project from the simple to the complex. Structure methodologies, analyze, summarize the findings, and apply the findings to the project. Manage a section of work from simple to complex, understand the scope of the total project. Design an approach and determine the resources needed to complete the project, select the appropriate methodology and complete the work, and develop the recommendations.
Being on a project also includes managing the executive relationship with responsibility that require you to organize the team, structure the work plan, complete the work, introduce the work to the client and develop the implications for the client. As well as manage relationships by building a development strategy and deepen trust-based relationships. Drive the business impact of the project or more than one project and be part of multiple engagements for the client over time.
