We are recruiting a Non-Executive Director to join our Board

We are looking for a new Non-Executive Director (NED) to join our Board. This is a great opportunity to bring your experience and expertise to a role that makes a real impact on healthcare services within our community.
While previous NED experience is beneficial, it’s not essential. We are particularly interested in candidates who live in or have connections to the Wakefield and North Kirklees areas.
Key requirements
You will need to have a genuine interest in patient care and the promotion of excellent health care services. You will also have senior strategic experience at Board level in a large, complex organisation, with a particular emphasis on:
- A strong commitment to improving patient care and promoting high-quality healthcare services.
- Experience at a senior strategic level in a large, complex organisation, with a focus on financial management (although you don’t need to be financially qualified).
- A solid understanding of transformational change and how to drive long-term improvements across systems and workforce reform.

We strongly recommend an informal and confidential discussion with the Trust. Please contact Jen Beckett, Associate Director of Corporate Governance.
