While your qualifications and experience tell us part of your story, your values and attitude speak louder still. At NMHS, we aim to ensure our behaviours reflect our core values: Care, Respect, Innovation, Teamwork, and Integrity. During the selection process you will be assessed on your ability to fulfil the responsibilities of this position while upholding our values. What we offer NMHS supports flexible working practices and consideration will be given to flexible work options, where operationally appropriate.

We may ask referees to comment on your integrity and past demonstration of ethical behaviour. Please note that adverse information does not necessarily disqualify an applicant but will be considered as part of the appointment process. Whilst this selection process will initially be used to fill the above vacancy, it may also be used to fill other similar vacancies throughout the health service or the wider public service.
