Of particular interest to us will be individuals with skills in the areas of finance, audit, governance, health and safety, law or health compliance.

This is a unique opportunity to contribute to a Māori-led organisation that serves a diverse community in the heart of Hawke’s Bay.
It is expected that there will be at a minimum:
* Six bi-monthly board meetings where board packs will need to be reviewed – a minimum of 1.5 to 2 hours.
* Quarterly risk-based meetings of at least 4 hours.
* Ad hoc special paper reviews as required.
