The Data Acquisition Lead manages the timely acquisition and sourcing of data suitable for counter fraud analysis within the NHSCFA’s analytical and data science function.

The role necessitates developing a comprehensive understanding of the NHSCFA’s data requirements and developing and enacting the basis in which they can be met through a) developing access to data within a sound governance framework and b) their incorporation and utilisation within developed data pipelines. Developing relationships, both within the NHSCFA and across our wider stakeholders, is central to this role in order to develop and formally agree dataflows with key partners and work collaboratively with the various disciplines within each portfolio of work being undertaken to support their implementation.
