I noticed two NEHTA advertisements in the last week for reasonably senior positions.
First here:
Applications Support Manager
- Fixed term contract
The National E-Health Transition Authority (NEHTA) was established by the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) to develop better ways of electronically collecting and securely exchanging health information. NEHTA is the lead organisation supporting the national vision for eHealth in Australia.
NEHTA is currently seeking people with a desire to make a difference to health outcomes, who are passionate about the use of eHealth to meet these goals and have the relevant experience to deliver solutions in a highly complex stakeholder and technical environment.
The purpose of this position is to provide robust management and operation of NEHTA’s internal and externally facing terminology systems. In this professional systems operation role you will be the primary liaison between the system implementers and IT Infrastructure team regarding production system deployment/modification and operational procedures and will manage and perform all operational and first/second tier support functions for production terminology systems.

Product Manager

- Support and drive outcomes for eHealth

What I found interesting was that both positions end at end December 2015.
Are those hired going to get a new job then with the new AeHC or are they intended to be out the door as NEHTA closes down? Why would you take a job like that?
I wonder what is actually being communicated here?
David.
It would be a funding constant, but yes probably difficult to fill. I hear some executives at NEHTA are leaving or have left, sadly those behind the decline of Architect and the never ending failure of AMT are not amounts to them.
ReplyDeleteDoes NEHTA actually have an up-to-date Strategic Plan? Can someone point me to it, I can't find it on the fancy new website. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThe exit strategy would be to take as many knives as possible, stab the in as many backs as possible, form little gangs to consolidate power and move staff around so that any pre or post review of the 2011-2016 period, cannot trace anything to any appointed decision maker. Oh and delete all project files, probably through some IT consolidation project. Then blame it on Peter and Paul.
