Appointments Commission Information

The Appointments Commission is the only dedicated provider of recruitment services to support public appointments. Underlying everything we do is a total commitment to the idea that good public appointments support good public services. We understand the many challenges involved in appointing new members to boards and committees, and are always seeking innovative ways to provide high quality recruitment and selection services that will ensure you find the best possible people are appointed. We understand that beginning the search for a new non-public appointee can be a daunting prospect. Specialist recruitment knowledge and an awareness of the regulatory implications are needed. Alongside this, you need to manage not only the process but also the many different people and personalities involved. The Appointments Commission can deliver in all these areas. Our wide-ranging experience means that we have a complete understanding of every aspect of public appointments, from finding diverse and talented candidates through to supporting your appointees with advice on leadership, best practice and good governance. For the NHS and all Government departments, we are here to help you build better boards through better public appointments.
