What you'll need to be successful

Interested applicants will need to be able to demonstrate strongly the value and benefit they will bring, playing a key role in the continued growth and success of the Priory for Wales.

As well as specific expertise, applicants should be able to show commitment to the charity’s aims and objectives, the willingness to devote the necessary time and effort, strategic vision, good judgement, willingness to speak their mind, ability to work as a team and a belief in Nolan’s seven principles of public life.

Reflecting the diversity of local communities is particularly important to us so we wish to encourage people with a range of backgrounds and experiences to apply.

We are committed to being a diverse organisation, that is truly representative of the communities we serve. We are an equal opportunities organisation with an inclusive environment, where we aim to ensure all our people can contribute to their fullest potential.

We encourage you to apply if you are from an under-represented group as we appreciate the strong value of having rich and diverse leaders. Whilst our roots are based in a Christian background, we welcome applicants from other faiths and those without faith.
