We’re looking for new people to join our Board!

As Healthwatch Birmingham and Healthwatch Solihull reach more people and have more impact each year, we’re looking for new Non-Executive Directors to join our Board and guide us through the next stages of our development. It’s a challenging but exciting time for local health and social care services, with opportunities to tackle some of the long-standing health inequalities that affect the region’s most vulnerable people.

Healthwatch Birmingham and Healthwatch Solihull is completely independent of the NHS and social care services, and is recognised and respected for representing the public voice in local health and social care. We are determined to constantly innovate and increase our reach even further into diverse communities to hear what everyone has to say, and need a Board with a wide range of backgrounds and experience to help us achieve this.

We are currently looking for Non-Executive Directors with a range of skills, but in particular individuals with finance and audit expertise. If you have the experience and share our commitment to ensuring that everyone can access timely and appropriate care in a health and social care system that treats them with respect, please email nedrecruitment@healthwatchbirmingham.co.uk for more details or call Diane Hickey on 0800 652 5278 to arrange an informal chat. The closing date for enquiries is Monday 12th August.

Healthwatch Birmingham and Healthwatch Solihull Non-Executive Directors are voluntary roles. The organisation will reimburse you for reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred in carrying out your duties.
