Vacancy Description
Ministers are seeking to make three Non-Executive Directors appointments to the board of the NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT).
The Department of Health and Social Care values and promotes diversity and encourages applications from all sections of the community. The boards of public bodies should reflect the population they are there to serve. Boards also benefit from fresh perspectives, and we are always keen to encourage candidates new to public appointments to consider applying for our roles.
To be considered, you must be able to demonstrate that you have the qualities, skills, and experience to meet all the essential criteria for appointment.
As a Non-Executive Director, you will work with the Chair, other non-executives and the Chief Executive and her Executive team to govern the activities of NHSBT. With them you will share the corporate responsibility for the decisions of the Board and the performance of the organization. You will:
- contribute to the development of strategy, agreeing the goals, business plans and objectives of the organization, taking into account the policies of the various UK health departments as necessary
- monitor and review performance, ensuring that financial controls and systems of risk management are robust and effective
- help shape an inclusive and high performing culture in NHSBT through engaging with and providing ideas and guidance to the NHSBT team
- demonstrate a commitment to patient safety and to patients and staff being able to properly raise concerns
- represent the Board, as required, at official occasions and visits to NHSBT sites.
For further information please see the attached candidate information pack.
