EXECUTIVE BIO
Sammut is relatively new to the
NHS , having joined NWAS in December 2020 , after spending 15 years in the private sector .
He has worked across healthcare , insurance , outsourcing , and finance in previous roles , which have included Business Intelligence Director at Health Management Ltd and Client Intelligence Manager at Capita .
" In terms of what I look after , it ' s pretty much everything from data sourcing right through to output analytics ," Sammut says . " Data analytics has always been in my wheelhouse , but I ' ve moved away from the commercial side of things more towards the actual care of people , which has been quite the transition . That ' s been quite an exciting journey in the last 10 months . It ' s a different way of thinking .
" It really opens up a lot of opportunities , especially when you ' re surrounded by people with the same sort of thinking in terms of doing everything for the patient , ultimately ."
