Associate Non-Executive Director

At Queen Victoria NHS Foundation Trust (QVH), we believe in transforming lives through exceptional healthcare. As a leading specialist NHS Trust, we proudly provide life-changing reconstructive surgery, expert burns care, and comprehensive rehabilitation services to individuals across the South of England. Our world-renowned clinical teams are also dedicated to providing first class community medical services for residents of East Grinstead and the surrounding areas.

Experience our commitment to quality with our minor injuries’ unit, specialised therapies, innovative sleep services, and a growing range of community-based offerings. We are proud to be consistently rated among the top hospitals in the country for our outstanding quality of care by our patients.

As we look to our future, QVH now have an opportunity to strengthen its Board and are seeking to appoint two Associate Non-Executive Directors (ANED).  At QVH, we are dedicated to navigating the complexities of the health and social care system while keeping our patients’ individual needs at the forefront of everything we do.

As such, we are eager to secure individuals who understand the needs of the local community and what it takes to work in partnership with others.  You do not need to have any prior NHS knowledge and for at least one of the Associates, this is a developmental opportunity for those who may have had less prior exposure to the Boardroom.

This is your chance to make a meaningful impact and help us address health inequalities as we expand our role in the Sussex Integrated Care System. If you are ready to shape the future of healthcare and foster a culture of agility and transformation, we want to hear from you.

Please note that to be eligible for the role, applicants must live in one of the Trust’s constituent areas.

QVH is committed to ensuring its workforce is reflective of its diverse communities and is committed to increasing representation of staff of Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds across all roles and at all levels.
