Vacancy Description
S1317
To apply for the role please visit the NHS Jobs website and submit your application online.
The successful candidate will play a key role in shaping the strategy, vision and purpose of the Northern Devon Healthcare NHS Trust whilst holding the Chief Executive and Executive Team to account in delivering safe, high quality and sustainable services within the available budget.
The successful candidate will be involved in the work of Board sub-committees, including acting as chair of the Audit & Assurance Committee and as a key member of the Finance Committee.
Person Specification
Essential criteria
You will need to have a genuine commitment to patients and the promotion of excellent health care services. You will have senior level experience in corporate strategic finance including internal control and corporate governance expertise. The successful candidate must also have a financial qualification.
Given the importance and complexity of the Audit & Assurance Committee’s work in supporting the Trust Board, it is essential that the successful candidate has recent, prior experience of finance and internal control. It would also be advantageous to have skills and/or experience in the clinical or risk management fields and a background of serving on equivalent committees in other organisations. The successful candidate will have the qualifications, expertise or experience that enables them to express informed and objective views about financial management.
All Non-executive directors must champion the standards of public life – by upholding the highest standards of conduct and displaying the principles of selflessness, integrity, objectivity, accountability, openness, honesty, and leadership.
As a future NHS leader, the successful candidate will be able to demonstrate the range of behaviours required to contribute effectively in this board level role. These are outlined in the NHS Leadership Academy’s Healthcare Leadership Model.
Applicants should live in or have strong connections with North Devon.
We value and promote diversity and are committed to equality of opportunity for all and appointments made on merit. We believe that the best boards are those that reflect the communities they serve.
We particularly welcome applications from women, people from the local black and minority ethnic communities, and disabled people who we know are under-represented in chair and non-executive roles.
