Inclusive Boards are delighted to be supporting the London's Air Ambulance Charity in their search for a new Chair.

London’s Air Ambulance Charity delivers an advanced trauma team to London’s most seriously injured patients.

Using a helicopter from 08:00 to sunset, and rapid response cars at night or in adverse weather situations, London’s Air Ambulance brings the hospital to the patient when time is critical. We perform innovative and potentially life-saving procedures usually found in the emergency department on-scene. The team, consisting of an advanced trauma doctor, paramedic and consultant on most missions, can perform treatments such as open heart surgery, blood transfusions and general anaesthetic by the roadside.

The Chair will hold the Board and Executive Team to account for the Charity’s mission and strategy, providing inclusive leadership to the Board of Trustees and ensuring that each Trustee fulfils their duties and responsibilities for the effective governance of the Charity. The Chair will also support the Chief Executive and ensure that the Board functions as a unit and works closely with the Executive team of the Charity to achieve its agreed objectives. The Chair will be a torch bearer for the values of the Charity and act as an ambassador and the public face of the Charity in partnership with the Chief Executive.

We are looking for a Chair with experience of operating at a senior strategic leadership level within an organisation with a successful track record of achievement through their career
