Our services
The Appointments Commission makes around half of all public appointments and reappointments regulated by OCPA in England. On average, we manage more than 500 public sector recruitment campaigns a year, over 90% of which result in a successful initial appointment.
We have extensive experience in recruiting and appointing non-executives and an excellent track record of finding candidates with the right qualities and expertise.
For the Health Service, we:
- manage the recruitment, selection and appointment of chairs and non-executive directors;
- provide year-long induction training for chairs and non-executives, ensuring the best possible start for new appointees;
- act as the ‘guardian’ of the appraisal process, setting minimum standards and providing guidance and advice;
- promote good governance through advice, guidance and policy development;
- provide support and advice to chairs through our regionally-based Commissioners
