Data Platform Lead Engineer (SEL & SWL)

You will have the opportunity to help shape and mature the Data Engineering capability supporting analytics across South East and South West London, working across Microsoft Fabric, Snowflake and Azure in a complex health and care data environment.

This is an opportunity to influence not only what we build, but how we engineer--establishing better approaches to architecture, ingestion, orchestration, transformation, data modelling, testing, deployment, monitoring, automation and reuse. Working closely with Data Engineers, Data Scientists and analysts, you will see how engineering decisions affect analytical delivery and be able to target technical improvements where they can make the greatest difference. You will combine hands-on engineering with technical leadership and assurance, helping us develop scalable, resilient and production-quality data products while demonstrably improving the speed, quality, reliability and efficiency of analytical delivery.

In 2025, the boards of NHS South East London ICB and NHS South West London ICB entered into a clustering arrangement, meaning that we share a chair, chief executive officer and an executive team, but we remain as separate, statutory organisations.

This also means that the ICBs will share some teams, who will be working across both organisations. Some teams will also be working across both geographical areas and integrated care systems.

ICBs are also changing, with a clear focus on strategic commissioning and delivering neighbourhood working.

This is an exciting time to work within our ICBs. We currently have the opportunity both to shape the future of our clustered organisations, and to be part of a radical transformation of care for the local people and communities across south London.

And while our two ICBs are different in some ways, improving lives for the people we serve is at the core of what we are both here to do.
