Looking for someone with a head for figures
WORCESTERSHIRE Acute Hospitals NHS Trust is looking for a finance expert to join the board as a non-executive director.
The trust is looking for someone with strategic and financial experience and community focus, who can plan ahead and contribute to the strategy of an organisation that cares for 2,000 patients every day.
Board members commit a minimum of two-and-a-half days per month to NHS duties, as well as attending public meetings and preparing by reading papers and reports.
Harry Turner, Worcestershire Acute Trust board chairman said “I came from the private sector to join the board in November 2010.
“It’s an incredibly challenging time for the NHS, but it’s inspiring to think about what you’re contributing to as a member of an Acute Trust Board. I’d encourage anyone from a professional background to get involved.”
More information and an application pack is available from worcsacute.nhs.uk or for an informal discussion about the role call 01905 733960.

Do you mean that in advertising this vacancy there has been an absence of financial expertise ?
So no.
