About Us

PRP Diagnostic Imaging offers a comprehensive range of imaging services, through a network of 38 practices across Sydney, Illawarra, Central Coast and the Hunter and Central West. We are excited to be entering the next phase of our growth and expansion plans, with additional practices opening in 2026. It is a remarkable time to join PRP, where we are committed to providing the highest quality of patient care, with a personal touch and your contribution matters in shaping the future of PRP. 

We utilise the most advanced technology and employ a team of world-class imaging physicians, specialists, technicians and support staff in a safe and caring environment. We encourage collaboration, a strong work ethic and provide a supportive learning environment. We have an outstanding track record in the professional development of our team.

About the Position

Reporting to the Chief Technology Officer, in this newly created position of Head of Data, you will be responsible for leading and evolving the organisation’s data capabilities within a radiology and healthcare context. You will ensure high standards of data quality, integrity, governance, security and patient privacy. You will act as a trusted data advisor to senior business and clinical stakeholders, enabling insights that support operational excellence, clinical quality, regulatory compliance and improved patient outcomes.

You will guide the evolution of the data platform from legacy reporting environments to modern, scalable architectures, including the strategic use of Snowflake and other tools. You will balance strategic leadership with hands-on contribution where required, and will shape how data underpins analytics, reporting and emerging intelligent automation use cases across the healthcare business.

About You

You must have proven experience leading or evolving data functions, ideally within healthcare, radiology, or other highly regulated environments. Your background must include:

• Demonstrated success transitioning data capabilities from legacy platforms to modern cloud-based architectures.
• Strong understanding of modern data pipelines, event-driven data flows and cloud data platforms such as Snowflake.
• Deep appreciation of data governance, privacy and compliance obligations, particularly in relation to patient and clinical data.
• Ability to operate as a trusted advisor, communicating complex data concepts clearly to clinical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Experience with enterprise data ecosystems; exposure to Salesforce environments is advantageous but not essential.
• Understanding of advanced data architecture concepts such as zero-copy data sharing and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG).
• Comfortable balancing strategic leadership with hands-on technical contribution in a growing organisation.

What We Offer  

• Attractive remuneration and benefits (discounted health insurance and gym membership)
• Commitment to professional development and education
• Investment in state-of-the-art equipment
• Friendly, diverse and professional team
• Flexible and supportive working arrangements

Our Values

We put care into everything we do. We are courageous and accountable. Our reputation is outstanding and we trust and empower each other. Reach your full potential with PRP, where patient wellbeing is our priority and having fun is part of our culture.
