Board Member Recruitment

Why?

The NHS impacts on everyone’s lives at one time or another and this could be your chance to get involved in improving, sustaining and protecting the health of the local population.

What’s involved?

NHS D&G is looking for three people to join its Board. These are rewarding and worthwhile opportunities that require a flexible approach to engaging with Board activities but will generally take up approximately 8 hours a week and last for up to 4 years. In return, you will be paid £8,842 a year. You will also get reasonable travel and subsistence costs, dependent carer expenses and support to help you

Can I apply?

We want to hear from people with a diverse range of skills, backgrounds and knowledge. You do not need to be a health expert or have previous experience of being on a Board. You do need to have a commitment to helping us improve the health and wellbeing of the people living in D&G. We are hoping for candidates with experiences that compliment those already available to the Board.

If this is you, we would like to hear from you.
