Position: Associate Vice-President, Epic Connect THP/HH
Status: Temporary Full-Time (24 months)
Number of Vacancies: 1
Department: Epic Connect
Role Level: $155,239.50 – $232,849.50 (salary band placement commensurate with experience)
Administrative Reporting: THP Executive Sponsor, EVP Performance & Planning and Chief Information & Analytics Officer
Functional Accountability: Joint Steering Committee co-chaired by the THP and HH Executive Sponsors
Recruitment: Jointly recruited by HH and THP
Posted: Tuesday, October 20, 2026 – Tuesday, November 3, 2026
Strategic Context
Trillium Health Partners (THP) and Halton Healthcare (HH) are formally exploring whether HH should join THP’s Epic environment through Epic Connect. The due diligence and planning phase is focused on the assessment and planning to validate the opportunity, confirm requirements, and determine the recommended direction. It does not represent a final implementation decision or commitment.
Together, HH and THP aim to create a more connected, accessible and digitally enabled regional system of care that improves patient outcomes, strengthens team and learner experience, and makes the best use of public resources for the communities they serve.
The potential partnership is a clinical transformation enabled by digital, operational, and governance alignment. The due diligence and planning phase will assess clinical workflow and THP foundation fit, technical and infrastructure requirements, scope, total cost of ownership, resourcing, governance, organizational readiness, stakeholder engagement and the future operating model.
Findings will be reported to the CEOs and Boards of both organizations and will inform a proposed Epic Collaboration Agreement and implementation recommendation for approval by the appropriate governance bodies.
The Broader Opportunity
The due diligence and planning phase is the immediate mandate, but the chance is larger. A successful Halton partnership and implementation could become a foundational proof point for the next stage of regional digital leadership: a repeatable capability for extending THP’s digital assets, operating shared services and enabling digitally connected care across organizations and providers. Epic Connect and managed technology services are the first potential offerings. Over time, and subject to future strategy, governance, funding and approvals, the capability could support broader interoperability, digital front door, population health, analytics, AI-enabled transformation and other digital partnerships.
The successful candidate must therefore be able to operate across two horizons: lead the disciplined due diligence and planning work now and, if the partnership is approved, transition into the THP–HH implementation lead and oversee the implementation team. The role will help translate the approved direction into detailed implementation planning, readiness and execution, supporting the partnership through go-live, stabilization and transition to the future operating model, while continuing to build approaches,
relationships and capabilities that can scale as THP’s regional digital role evolves.
The Position
The Associate Vice-President, Epic Connect THP/HH is the executive lead for the due diligence and planning phase and a builder of THP’s emerging regional digital partnership capability. The AVP will direct the integrated people, process and technology work required to determine whether, and on what terms, HH would join THP’s Epic environment. Through the Executive Sponsors, the AVP is accountable for reporting progress, risks, findings and recommendations to the CEOs and Boards of both organizations.
THP will lead due diligence and remain the primary relationship holder with Epic during the due diligence and planning phase. HH will remain accountable for its clinical transformation, implementation, organizational change management, and risk management, supported through agreed collaboration with THP. The AVP will ensure these complementary accountabilities are explicit and coordinated, and the role will lead the implementation if both parties proceed with this Epic Connect digital partnership.
