Associate Non-Executive Directors

There are vacancies for up to two Associate Non-executive Directors at Yorkshire

Ambulance Service NHS Trust. This is an exceptional opportunity to share your

talents and expertise to make a positive difference to the lives of people served by

the Trust.

succession planning and to achieve a balance of Board level skills. Associate NEDs

cannot participate in any formal vote at Board, but we welcome their views and

perspectives, particularly on the impact of our decisions on our patients.

The successful candidates for the Associate role will be appointed by the Trust but

may also be considered for appointment as a full NED of the Board in future (within

two years from initial appointment) should a vacancy arise and they meet the

essential criteria.

You will need to demonstrate a genuine commitment to patient care, patient

experience, and the promotion of excellent health care services. The Trust is open

minded about the knowledge, skills and experience you can offer. The Trust is

particularly interested in candidates who can bring professional expertise and / or

lived experience in respect of the following:

Clinical services, including primary care, urgent and emergency care, nursing,

allied health professionals, and clinical commissioning
