We are now seeking to appoint two new Non-Executive Directors and will be looking for individuals who can bring their talents and experience to strengthen and bring new perspectives to the Trust Board.

Main duties of the job

Non-Executive Directors play a key role within the Trust working alongside Board colleagues in setting the Trust's strategic aims and then holding the Executive to account for delivering these aims and strategic objectives. They share responsibility with the other directors for the decisions made by the Board and for the success of the organisation in leading the local improvement of healthcare services.

HR, workforce and organisational development experience, gained in a Board level role.
Medical/ clinical leadership, with Board level experience gained in a medical, nursing, or other clinical role.

About us

Bolton NHS Foundation Trust is an integrated provider with community health services, covering a catchment area that also incorporates parts of Bury, Wigan and Salford. We deliver hospital and community based services from the Royal Bolton Hospital in Farnworth and from 20 health centres across Bolton, to a catchment population of 320,000 people.

This is an exciting time to join us, as we continue to progress our integration journey, develop our estates and invest in our workforce. The challenges across the NHS are widely known, and are no different here in Bolton. We continue to tackle an extensive elective backlog, pressured urgent care services and an ageing estate. But collectively, I know we've got exactly the right teams in place to get to where we want to be.
