Nurse vacancy on NHS Evidence Advisory Committee

The NHS Evidence Advisory Committee is an independent standing committee of the Board of the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) that provides independent accreditation recommendations on guidance development processes and identifies and sets standards for guidance development. The committee also provides external, independent support and advice on the strategic direction of NHS Evidence.

Committee members are expected to attend committee meetings every six to eight weeks. In addition, committee members will need to be able to deal in a timely manner with the reading of substantial committee documents. All travel and accommodation expenses will be reimbursed by NICE.
