NHS Tayside is looking for a new

non-executive member

NHS Tayside is looking for a new non-executive member to join its Board.

NHS Tayside is responsible for meeting the health needs of around 400,000 people living in the area and provides a comprehensive range of primary, community-based and acute hospital services for the population.

Non-executive members of the Board play a central role in guiding the strategies which address the health priorities and health care needs of the resident population and which will have a lasting impact on the delivery of healthcare in local communities across the area served by NHS Tayside.

People with a diverse range of skills, backgrounds and knowledge are being encouraged to consider the role. Applicants do not need to be a health expert or have previous experience of being on a Board. They do, however, need to have a commitment to helping improve the health and wellbeing of the people living in Tayside.

The appointment will be for four years and there is a commitment of around 8 hours a week with a payment of £8,169 a year.

If you would like a local discussion before deciding to seek an application form, please contact NHS Tayside Board Secretary Margaret Dunning on 01382 740709.
