Non-Executive Director (Medical)

Are you a strategic thinker with a passion for healthcare innovation and high-quality patient care? Do you thrive in a collaborative environment where your insights can shape the future of healthcare delivery? If so, HUC invites you to consider a unique role as Non-Executive Director (Medical) on our Board.

Main duties of the job

As our Non-Executive Director (Medical), you'll play a pivotal role in shaping HUC's strategic direction, championing high standards of clinical governance, and ensuring our services meet the highest quality and compliance standards. You'll bring an independent perspective, challenge assumptions, and offer strategic guidance on major decisions that impact both our patients and workforce.

We recognise that a number of our systems and processes need to change, so that they are fit for purpose in a larger organisation. You can play a central role in setting the agenda for this change and evaluating progress against this. We believe that the ideal candidate will have operated at a Senior Partner level developing the scale of operations/innovative products and services ideally gained in an urgent care environment. You will therefore have a background in, or experience of:

• Working at, or close to, Board level
• Healthcare leadership in NHS or private healthcare, ideally with expertise in urgent care
• Partnership building and social entrepreneurship, balancing big-picture thinking with practical decision making

Therefore, an understanding of the performance requirements and metrics in urgent care services would be a distinct advantage.

Influential & Collaborative: Your exceptional communication and negotiation skills enable you to inspire and influence colleagues and stakeholders.
