Director of Digital

Stuart joined CTMUHB as Director of Digital in December 2021.

With more than 22 years’ experience, working nationally and internationally across Blood and Cancer Services, Stuart has been responsible for the strategic leadership of Digital across Velindre University NHS Trust since 2017.

During that time Stuart built strong working relationships with colleagues from across all aspects of NHS Wales, Academia and Industry.

As a member of the Digital Delivery Leadership Group for NHS Wales, Stuart is experienced in the development of digital transformation programmes and in early 2018 Stuart developed Cognitive by Design, a high level digital vision for how Velindre can play their part in reimagining care for Cancer in South East Wales, which included a digital vision for a new state of the art Velindre Cancer Centre.

In 2020, Stuart became one of the first employees within NHS Wales to join the NHS Digital Academy Alumni at Imperial College London, and plays a lead role in developing digital capabilities across NHS Wales.

In the summer 2021, on behalf of digital leaders across South East Wales, Stuart was the NHS lead that developed a successful proposal for a national Digital Intensive Learning Academy that launches later in the autumn this year.
