Local Health Boards are responsible for planning, designing, developing and securing the delivery of primary, community, in-hospital care services and - where appropriate - specialised services for the citizens in their respective areas to meet identified local needs within the national policy and standards framework set out by the Minister for Health and Social Services.
Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board (UHB) is the largest health organisation in Wales providing a full range of primary, community, mental health and acute hospital services for a population of around 676,000 people across the six counties of North Wales (Anglesey, Gwynedd, Conwy, Denbighshire, Flintshire and Wrexham) - as well as some parts of mid Wales, Cheshire and Shropshire.
The Chair will be accountable to the Minister for Health and Social Services for the performance of the Board and its effective governance, for upholding the values of the NHS, and for promoting the confidence of the staff, patients and communities across Wales on behalf of the Board. The Chair also has a responsibility to ensure that the UHB continues to deliver against national objectives set by the Welsh Government.
The Chair will be appointed for up to 4 years and the post is based on a notional time commitment of a minimum of 15 days per month, but this will be subject to organisational demands. The Chair will be eligible to receive Band 4 remuneration which equates to £69,840 per annum.
We are particularly interested in receiving applications from under-represented groups such as women, disabled people and those from ethnic minorities.

It is expected that the interviews will be held in August 2013
