The Coordinator maintains data quality in our EMR (PS Suite), prepares reports and dashboards, helps staff use data and take part in quality improvement work, and helps WCHC adopt digital tools responsibly, including cloud-based platforms and artificial intelligence (AI).

- Minimum 2 years of experience working with health care and patient data, preferably in primary care.
- EMR experience required; PS Suite experience strongly preferred, including searches, queries, custom forms and stamps.
- Experience supporting quality improvement projects (e.g., QIP data collection, PDSA cycles, process mapping).
- Advanced Excel and Microsoft 365 skills (SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive). Experience with Power BI, SQL, or similar tools would be an asset.
- Experience using AI tools at work and an interest in their responsible use in health care.
- Working knowledge of PHIPA, privacy, and data governance principles.
- Ability to explain data clearly to non-technical audiences and to help staff with documentation and data entry.
- Strong organizational and problem-solving skills, with exceptional attention to detail.
- Knowledge of Ontario health system reporting (e.g., Ontario Health, OHRS/MIS, MSAA) would be an asset.
Only applicants selected for an interview will be contacted.
