Job Description:

The Senior Assistant Manager / Manager, Education Technology plays a pivotal role in advancing IMH's position as a regional leader in mental health education.

Tiered Service Model and Capability Building

• Implement and manage a tiered service model for education technology requests, focusing team expertise on complex, high-value work whilst enabling other departments to handle simpler conversions independently
• Develop training materials, guidelines, and support structures to build digital conversion capability across IMH departments
• Provide ongoing coaching and technical support to departmental staff undertaking their own digitisation work

Intake, Prioritisation, and Stakeholder Management

• Establish and manage a formal intake and prioritisation process for education technology requests, using a structured framework that considers strategic importance, urgency, revenue implications, and resource requirements
• Maintain a tracking system that provides visibility into the team's current workload and upcoming commitments
• Communicate clearly and proactively with stakeholders on timelines, prioritisation decisions, and delivery expectations
• Provide regular reporting to senior management on the Education Technology team's work and capacity

Educator Readiness and Support

• Develop and deliver an educator readiness programme to prepare clinician-educators for hybrid and digital delivery, covering technology platforms, pedagogical approaches, and facilitation techniques
• Provide ongoing technical and pedagogical support to educators throughout the conversion and delivery process
• Facilitate a community of practice where educators share experiences and learn from one another

Quality Assurance and Continuous Improvement

• Establish and oversee quality assurance processes for all digital and hybrid modules, including student and educator feedback surveys, focus groups, and learning outcomes analysis
• Systematically implement improvements based on feedback and data, and conduct periodic reviews to ensure content remains current and effective
• Collaborate with academic partners such as NUS DGMS to monitor whether digital formats are achieving intended learning outcomes
