Role Purpose The purpose of this role within the relevant business unit and for HIQA as a whole: The purpose of this role is to join a multidisciplinary team with responsibility for the effective implementation of HIQA’s programmes to deliver high quality health technology assessments (HTAs), other evidence-based advice and evidence synthesis outputs, and therefore to embed evidence-based methodology in the health decision-making processes in Ireland. The HTA Directorate, overall, comprises approximately 60 analysts. Methods development and academic outputs are actively encouraged and the Directorate hosts a range of postgraduate fellowships and an active post-graduate degree training programme. The scope of the HTA Directorate’s work includes providing evidence synthesis and evidence-based advice to inform public health policy, and providing HTAs to inform decision-making on investment or disinvestment in health technologies and programmes, including decisions in relation to national screening and national immunisation programmes. Teams within the HTA Directorate also perform evidence synthesis to support the development of National Clinical Guidelines & Audit and the development of national health policy, and evidence synthesis reviews to inform decisions related to the generic justification of practices involving medical exposure to ionising radiation. Since 31 March 2025, HIQA hosts the National Immunisation Advisory Committee (NIAC), Ireland’s National Immunisation Technical Advisory Group (NITAG). Staff from the HTA Directorate provide the clinical, technical and administrative secretariat for NIAC to support the development of independent evidence-based advice on vaccines, immunisation and related health matters to inform health policies in Ireland, and updates to the Immunisation Guidelines for Ireland. The Clinical Pharmacist will support the NIAC Special Advisors who lead on the review and update of the Immunisation Guidelines for Ireland in line with NIAC’s programme of work. The post holder will contribute to the co-ordination and co-authoring of these updates as well as assist with advice and responding to immunisation queries from healthcare professionals. The post holder will be part of a multidisciplinary team that produces evidence syntheses on vaccines, immunisation and related health topics to aid decision-making. Working closely with the NIAC Clinical Lead and Special Advisors, the post holder will liaise with subject matter experts and work collaboratively with academic partners and with other national and international bodies involved in immunisation guideline and policy development, and immunisation programme implementation. The post holder will actively engage in the work of the HTA Directorate and of HIQA to deliver on the annual business plan in line with the strategic objectives as outlined in HIQA’s Corporate Plan. Behavioural Expectations The way that HIQA people are expected to work to role model HIQA values: The incumbent of this role is expected to demonstrate HIQA’s values in the delivery of every day work and interactions with clients and colleagues, by putting people first, being fair and objective, being open and accountable, demonstrating excellence and innovation and working together.

Superannuation Pensionable public servants (new joiners) recruited on or after 1 January 2013 will be members of the Single Public Service Pension Scheme.

The legislation giving effect to the Scheme is the Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and Other Provisions) Act 2012 . For those who are not subject to the Single Public Service Pension Scheme (e.g. those transferring from other public service employment where the break in service, if any, is less than 26 weeks), the terms of the Health Information and Quality Authority Superannuation Scheme will apply.

Blended Working Arrangements HIQA has introduced blended working to offer more flexible working arrangements to all employees. We aim to strike a balance between being flexible, efficient, and resilient by facilitating blended working where practical, while enabling onsite interaction, collaboration, and support as required. All roles in HIQA have been assessed under the criteria of business needs and role suitability for blended working. This determined the proportion of time that employees will spend working in HIQA offices and working from home, depending on their role. Depending on the role, there may be a requirement to attend the office for more than the allocated number of days for training and on-boarding purposes at the start of your employment and during the probation period. A review of our blended working model confirmed that this model is working well in HIQA therefore we are now moving from Interim Blended Working to a long-term Blended Working Model. Our existing policy and documentation will be revised and updated once the framework for the Work-Life Balance and Miscellaneous Provisions Act is published. Our model is in line with the Civil Service Framework for Blended Working in Ireland . Further guidance on HIQA’s Blended Working Policy, which includes eligibility criteria, will be issued to successful candidates.
