The digital health arm of Queensland Health has announced the appointment of five senior executives after a five-month-long recruitment process, while it continues to look to fill the CEO/CIO role left vacant by the departure of Colin McCririck last year.

Acting chief digital strategy officer Cathy Ford has been confirmed in the role permanently, where she is joined by former Fujitsu staffer Bruce Linaker, who has taken up the job of chief solution delivery officer, and former ACT Health acting CIO Warren Prentice, who has been named chief technology officer.
