This is a role that we rarely recruit to and is therefore important that the right person joins us, as you will be required to provide guidance and governance to the senior leadership team.

Experience of working in a similar role, or at a senior level in a skill set related to ELFS is essential.

We are looking for an individual to join us, who can effectively engage with a range of colleagues both internally and externally, who can analyse and problem solve highly complex issues and who can think strategically whilst exercising sound judgement in the face of conflicting pressures and deadlines.

The role of the independent member is to provide guidance and governance for ELFS Managing Director and Operations Director.

The role requires key relationships to be maintained with ELFS Managing Director, ELFS Operations Director, ELFS Staff and other Board Members.

Working with us gives you the knowledge and sense of pride that the work you do supports our staff, ensuring we keep thriving and delivering outstanding healthcare.

You will make a real impact, be challenged to think differently, be bold and help innovate to keep improving things. This role is pivotal in delivering our services, enhancing our reputation and provide the best quality services we can deliver.
