NHS VALUES
It is recommended that where possible the NHS values below are reflected in job descriptions. Please go to the NHS Confederation website for further information www.nhsconfed.org
RESPECT AND DIGNITY
We value each person as an individual, respect their aspirations and commitments in life, and seek to understand their priorities, needs, abilities and limits. We take what others have to say seriously. We are honest about our point of view and what we can and cannot do.
COMMITMENT TO QUALITY OF CARE
We earn the trust that is placed in us by insisting on quality and striving to get the basics right every time - safety, confidentiality, professional and managerial integrity, accountability, dependable service and good communication. We welcome feedback, learn from our mistakes and build on our success.
COMPASSION
We find the time to listen and talk when it is needed, make the effort to understand and get on and do the small things that mean so much - not because we are asked to but because we care.
Improving lives
We strive to improve health and well-being and people's experiences of the NHS. We value excellence and professionalism wherever we find it - in the everyday things that make people's lives better as much as in clinical practice, service improvements and innovation.

Data Lead
University Hospitals Dorset NHS Foundation Trust View all jobs
Posted 7 day(s) ago
Reference: 2365679
Job summary
The Addiction Care & Treatment Service (ACTS) at University Hospitals Dorset is looking for a Data Lead.
ACTS is a small specialist team. We work with patients across our hospitals who have difficulties with alcohol and other drugs and tobacco dependence. We also work with people who experience high intensity use of hospital services. The service reports its activity to NHS England, NHS Dorset and local authority commissioners as well as to the Trust. Looking after the data behind all of that is the focus of this post.
You will be the only person doing this work. That brings independence and a direct working relationship with the Head of Addiction Services. The reporting deadlines sit with you, though not in isolation. You will work closely with the clinical team and with the Trust's Business Intelligence department, who support the service's data flows.
We are more interested in how well you handle data than in whether you have worked in addiction services before. You will need office experience in a healthcare setting and advanced Excel skills. You will also need to explain what a set of figures shows about the team's activity and outcomes, in terms a clinician or a commissioner can use.
Shortlisted candidates will be asked to complete a short practical Excel task at interview. Informal enquiries are actively encouraged.
Base: cross-site, Poole Hospital and Royal Bournemouth Hospital.
Interview date: 19th October 2026
Main duties of the job
o Manage all statutory and mandatory data submissions on behalf of ACTS and UHD, including drug and alcohol returns through NDTMS and tobacco returns and act on DOMES and RAG report findings.
o Coordinate the collection, validation and entry of patient data and take the lead on resolving validation issues with clinical staff and the Business Intelligence team.
o Build and maintain the reporting databases, dashboards and digital processes the service runs on, covering outcome measures, activity trends and performance against KPIs.
o Produce routine internal and external reports and respond to ad-hoc information requests, to a high standard of accuracy, timeliness and presentation.
o Work with clinicians and service managers to interpret what the data shows and turn it into practical recommendations.
o Act as the single point of contact for ACTS data queries across both hospital sites, and set consistent data standards so that reporting means the same thing wherever it comes from.
o Design and deliver training for colleagues on data handling and spreadsheet use, pitched to a range of skill levels and provide ongoing troubleshooting support.
o Allocate work to the ACTS administrative staff and give guidance on data handling, confidentiality and data protection.
o Represent ACTS in meetings, forums and working groups on data, quality improvement and service development.
About us
UHD are investing, developing and transforming Trust services in line with the New Hospital Programme. As part of this, some services may move site this year or next, either temporarily or permanently. Recruiting Managers will be happy to answer any service-specific questions at interview.
If a role or service relocates as part of a planned move, excess mileage will not be reimbursed. Travel from home to the new work base will be classed as a normal commute. Any other changes will be managed under Trust or national terms and conditions.
ACTS is a small, specialist team working across inpatient, outpatient and community settings. You would be the only person in the service holding this brief, working directly to the Head of Addiction Services and alongside the specialist nursing team. That means real ownership and visible impact, and it means you need to be someone who can organise their own work.
UHD has active networks including Women's, BAME, Pride, EU, Pro Ability, and Armed Forces. We support Disability Confident and Armed Forces Covenant interview schemes.
AI tools may be used, but applications must honestly reflect your own skills and experience. Integrity is key to our recruitment process.

The psychiatric nurse in charge (Psych NIC) is responsible for ensuring all those who present to the ED with an acute mental health need, receive timely and appropriate care, in the right place, at the right time, by the right person.
The PNIC will be expected to actively identify and triage those presenting to the ED with an urgent or emergent need for mental health care, psychological support and/ or those with substance misuse problems. Working alongside the ED team they try to ensure appropriate medical clearance wherever appropriate.

Main duties of the job
The Psych NIC will:
- be based on the emergency floor for much of the shift providing direct formal and informal support to the ED teams and visiting agencies.
- Offering face to face support directing referrals from the emergency floor to the most appropriate assessment pathway i.e. via the front door triage model, direct to the PLN's for full assessment or determining if further medical assessments need to be completed inline with our parallel assessment protocol.
- Work alongside the enhanced care team (ECT) in making decisions about enhanced observations for mental health patients.
- Act as part of the ED response team for patients detained on S136 or police referrals, and work to ensure timely throughput in department in line with the GSTT CODE10 protocol.
- Work alongside ED triage teams to evaluate fitness for assessment, and support visible parallel working. (see parallel working protocol)
- Through use of the front door triage model and from being visible and approachable able assist referrers in signposting to other services - including UCC, GP, IAPT etc.
- Assist the PLN assessment team working as the Psychiatric Nurse in Charge.
- Take a lead role within the liaison service, providing support and guidance within the service but also within their specialist lead area. i.e. safeguarding etc.
- provide clinical supervision with the band 6 (assessing) psychiatric liaison nursing team.
