Job overview
Our Council of Governors is looking to appoint two Non-Executive Directors to join our Board of Directors. Working as part of a unitary board, this is an excellent opportunity for the successful candidates to share their talent and expertise and to make a positive difference to the lives of the people we serve.

A good working relationship with our Council of Governors and the ability to collaborate while recognizing the uniquely independent Non-Executive Director role will be crucial.
The successful candidates will be involved in committees established by the board and may be asked to chair such committees, seeking assurance on behalf of the board on areas within the committee's purview.
