The candidate with the most votes will be announced on Thursday 22 June 2023.
The elected candidate will serve for a period of three years, commencing in advance of the next Board of Governors meeting, which will take place on Thursday 6 July 2023.
Although elected by staff within their particular category, members of the Board of Governors will not be representing any particular group or service area.
Alternative to online voting
For eligible staff without access to a computer, paper ballots can be provided with instructions for completion and return. If you have any direct reports or colleagues for whom this may apply to, please contact the Secretariat team to discuss via email.
