About Us
Adventist HealthCare Limited (AHCL) operates several businesses including Sydney Adventist Hospital (fondly known as the San), San Day Surgery Hornsby, San Radiology & Nuclear Medicine and Sydney Adventist Hospital Pharmacy. The San is NSW’s largest private hospital which was founded in 1903. We are proudly faith-based and have a proven history of being industry pioneers in ground-breaking research and delivering superior patient care. As a not-for-profit, we continually reinvest in cutting-edge technology and facilities, providing exceptional outcomes for our dedicated team of 2500+ employees, 1400 Accredited Medical Officers, 300 volunteers and the community we serve.
What you will be doing in this role
This is a rare opportunity to shape the future of digital healthcare within one of Australia's leading private hospitals. As Chief Digital Officer, you will lead the strategic direction, governance and delivery of AHCL's enterprise-wide digital portfolio, ensuring technology enables exceptional patient care, outstanding clinician experience and long-term organisational success. AHCL has already established a strong digital foundation, including SanCare, our in-house developed, best-in-class, Electronic Medical Record (EMR), providing an excellent platform from which to shape the next generation of digital transformation.
Reporting to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), you will be a trusted adviser to the CEO, Board and Executive team, providing strategic leadership across digital transformation, clinical informatics, cybersecurity, data and AI. You will lead a high-performing Digital Health team, driving a contemporary digital strategy that strengthens Sydney Adventist Hospital's reputation as a leader in innovation, clinical excellence and whole-person care in an increasingly digital healthcare environment.
Who we are looking for
We are seeking a values-led digital executive who has successfully led enterprise-wide digital transformation within a complex healthcare environment.
This is not a traditional technology leadership role. We are looking for an Executive who views digital as a strategic enabler of healthcare transformation, using technology, data and innovation to improve patient care, clinician experience and organisational performance, rather than simply delivering technology services.
You may currently be, or have previously been, a Chief Digital Officer, Chief Clinical Information Officer, Chief Information Officer, Chief Technology Officer, Chief Innovation Officer or hold a similar Executive leadership role responsible for digital strategy, transformation and innovation.
We are particularly interested in executives from acute care hospitals (private or public) or the health insurance sector who understand how digital capability can transform patient care, clinician experience and organisational performance.
