Gippsland Primary Health Network is looking for new Board directors; people who will be committed to meeting the health needs of our diverse region.
The investment in our work has never been more important so we need people who are community-focused and not afraid to bring new ideas to the table.
Our vision is for a measurably healthier Gippsland. Every day, we work hard to achieve this. The health needs of our regional community, especially vulnerable people and those at risk of the poorest health outcomes, depend on it.
We are unashamedly outcomes-focused. We are a tight-knit organisation with a culture of success, made possible through our resolve to work as a team. It takes innovative and creative people to ensure we provide the right services at the right time; services that make a difference. You will help us identify new opportunities, coordinate and support health services and commission new services.
Our board directors are also responsible for ensuring governance and oversight of Gippsland PHN’s legal and financial accountability and statutory requirements, as well as compliance with funding deed requirements.
We are seeking one elected Director and two appointed Directors to join us in November 2024. If you believe you are up for the challenge to help us achieve our vision, you are encouraged to apply.
Successful candidates will be required to undergo background checks including criminal history checks, and also have a Director ID.
Candidates must complete the following documentation and submit via email company.secretary@gphn.org.au by Sunday, 4 August 2024
1. Candidate details form for Gippsland Health Network Limited, trading as Gippsland PHN Board;
2. Board Skills Matrix;
