Operating within the Corporate Information Governance Team as Central Team Information Governance Manager. I am responsible for my direct team and we in turn support national teams in their portfolio work that requires Information Governance input. This varies from helping resolve information governance issues across business as usual areas such as general enquiries, subject rights requests and providing advice on risks and issues. To supporting all aspects of privacy by design on a range of national project and programme work. All of our input aims to enable data to be utilised in a way which protects it but that also looks to benefits the health and care system in line with NHS England and Improvement aims and objectives.

Working within a committed team supporting the strategic direction of Information Governance across NHS England. My primary focus was on resolving information governance issues across NHS England national programmes such as Genomics, Child Health Information Systems and General Data Protection Regulation Programme. These programmes looked to utilise data to benefit and inform the health and care system. My role provided advice and guidance on a range of data protection and privacy issues related to the use of data across these programmes.
