Central Manchester University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (CMFT) is a major specialist and teaching hospital providing local acute and community services to the population of Manchester and Trafford, together with complex specialist and tertiary hospital services to patients from the whole of the North West and further afield. We treat more than a million patients every year, employ around 12,000 people and have an annual turnover of almost £1 billion.

Our hospitals are home to hundreds of world class clinicians and academic staff committed to delivering the best care and treatments to our patients and our vision is to be recognised internationally as leading healthcare, excelling in quality, safety, patient experience, research, innovation and teaching, dedicated to improving health and wellbeing for our diverse population. The Trust has a long established and successful relationship with the University of Manchester and both are founding members of the Manchester Academic Health Science Centre, sharing a vision of becoming a leading global centre for the delivery of applied health research and education. 

We now have a vacancy for two Non Executive Directors for our Board to ensure that this successful and progressive Foundation Trust continues to thrive and develop. The successful candidates will work alongside Executive colleagues to provide vision and leadership to our dedicated staff and help to continue to develop positive and sustainable relationships with Governors, partners and stakeholders. 

We are looking for exceptional individuals who are passionate about the quality of care for patients in our region and beyond. We are not looking for any specific skill set for these appointments but you will have Board or senior level expertise gained in either a commercial or public environment and you will be able to demonstrate knowledge of strategic management and organisational governance. 

For an informal discussion, or, to request an information pack with details of how to apply, please contact our retained consultant, Diane Charnock by telephone.
