Overview

Application form: Specialised Commissioning Quality Assurance Implementation Programme Board

NHS England is committed to ensuring that public and patient voices are at the centre of shaping our healthcare services. Every level of our commissioning system needs to be informed by listening to those who use and care about our services.

The NHS England Specialised Commissioning Quality Assurance Implementation Programme Board is looking for two Patient and Public Voice members, to join the current membership of the group. Candidates will need to have a genuine commitment to patients and to improving the quality of specialised services. The ideal candidate will bring significant board level experience, with a strategic healthcare focus and strong intellect and political astuteness and a willingness to challenge. They will be expected to apply their skills, knowledge and experience to support the group to make complex decisions that will drive forward NHS England's ambition to deliver world-class, patient-centred care.

There will be payments of £150 per day (for those people not representing or supported by an organisation) for an estimated time commitment of 12 days per year. This is in line with the NHS England Expenses policy. Membership of the group is until March 2017 initially, at which point membership will be reviewed.

The closing date for applications is noon 17 June 2016. Interviews will be held on 28 and 29 June 2016.
