Biography
I joined CHaRT as an Analyst Programmer in February 2014, working on web applications and databases, producing functional specifications and assisting in the review and improvement of the documentation process. In September 2015 I moved to the position of Senior Programmer and now supervise and manage the work of the CHaRT programming team across a portfolio of about 40 Trial sites and databases. Other main duties include reviewing procedural documentation, liaising with Trial staff, updating requirements, checking test plan outcomes and data-cuts, completing the Trial site go-live process, actioning support requests when required, and acting as NHSD Gateway Manager Deputy for NHS Digital data deletion requests. I have over 30 years of experience in the IT industry including work for both public and private sectors.
