BOARD DIRECTOR

Could you help lead Healthwatch Bucks? We're the local independent organisation working to shape and improve local health and social care services for local people.

We are looking for new Board members to add their skills and perspectives to those of the current Directors who share a commitment to our mission and span a broad range of professional qualifications and leadership experience.

You would need to commit between 8 and 16 hours each month to Healthwatch Bucks including participation in quarterly meetings in public at different locations across the county. You would also be expected to participate in one or more of the Board committees or working groups.

Together with your colleagues on the Board, you would be responsible for the overall governance of Healthwatch Bucks with particular regard to setting the strategic direction and making sure that the organisation is well run.

Our Board members should have a good grasp of local issues surrounding health and social care and preferably live or work in Buckinghamshire. We want to our Board to reflect the diversity of our county and the many different communities which live and work here.

We are looking for team players who are excellent communicators with proven problem-solving and interpersonal skills. If you would like to know more about us and what we are looking for in our directors, please download an information pack from our website.

As for all our directors, these are voluntary and therefore unpaid roles.

Closing date: 5pm Friday 29 March 2019.

We will reply to all applications and interview short-listed candidates soon after the closing date.
