These are exciting and challenging times for the NHS nationally, and locally too.
To manage the succession of the Non-Executive Directors on our board and to strengthen the capability of the board still further, we are seeking to appoint a new Non-Executive Director with experience in at least one of our key strategic priority areas
• To deliver safe and high-quality patient care as part of an integrated system
• To support an engaged, healthy and resilient workforce
• To ensure financial stability
Our NEDs play a critical role in the effective governance of the trust, providing independence of thought and challenge, as well as support to our executives and a total commitment to the enduring values of NHS: the role of NEDs has never been more important.
Successful applicants are likely to be naturally strategic in their thinking, familiar with complex organizations, energized by change, driven by a desire to provide the very best standards of care to patients and service users, and robust and resilient in their approach to working life.
We are always interested in meeting applicants from diverse backgrounds who can add different perspectives to our debate at board.
You can contact the chair of the Trust sue.symington@york.nhs.uk for an informal conversation if this opportunity appeals to you, or you can visit the Trust on Monday 7th January 2019 between 4-6pm in the Boardroom, 2nd Floor, Administration Block, York Hospital, when you can meet NED colleagues, governors and executives informally to discuss the role of a NED in the NHS.

Deadline for receipt of applications: Friday 11th January 2019
