Through hospital and local based services, NHS Grampian is responsible for meeting the health needs of the half-million population spread over 3,000 square miles of city, town, village and rural communities.

The Board oversees a budget of over £1 billion.

Since April 2016 NHS Grampian's fully integrated Health and Social Care Partnerships became fully operational across their three Local Authority areas of Aberdeen City, Aberdeenshire and Moray and NHS Grampian works closely with the three Integration Joint Boards covering these areas.

You will be offered the training you need to make a strong contribution.

NHS Scotland's values are at the heart of everything that this organisation does.

These values, as outlined in the Everyone Matters: 2020 Workforce Vision, are:
care and compassion; dignity and respect; openness, honesty and responsibility; and, quality and teamwork. These guide the work of the Board in all that it does.

  • Awareness of equality and diversity
  • Ability to contribute effectively to the decision making of the Board

A non-executive member's total period of appointment will not exceed eight years.

Location:
The meetings for the NHS Board will be held across Grampian.
