Leading our Island

Leading our Island and making a difference to Islanders, every day.
Our Leadership team support the Chief Executive in answering our Island’s biggest questions, with their decisions touching Islanders' lives every day, and creating trust in our public service.
Our Chief Officers are a collaborative team holding responsibility for specific areas of the public service which span from our Island's infrastructure and environment, to our finances and our health provision.
Supported by Group Directors and Heads of Service, our leadership team are the guardians of corporate governance of the public service and ensure appropriate colleague management and sound financial control.
Dedicated to continuously improving and driving innovative approaches to providing our Island with a progressing, trusted public service, the challenge is constant and the daily work is unrivalled in terms of impact and complexity, making a difference every day.
Current Chief Officer and Group Director job vacancies are detailed below, and our Heads of Service roles are listed on the search jobs page.
Board and Trustee appointments
Governing our public service and ensuring the best delivery possible for Islanders through robust assurance.
Public service is just that; serving our Islanders in the best way possible, utilising resources well, making sound decisions and complying with regulation and legislation.
And we need people to give our Islanders comfort that this is happening. To allow this, the public service has a number of boards that ensure sound governance and control exists over all areas of public service, and that the direction of travel is aligned with the Common Strategic Policy.
These boards span from the Risk and Audit Committee, Fiscal Policy Panel, Health and Care Jersey Advisory Board, Jersey Care Commission, Jersey Appointments Commission and the Jersey Police Authority.
The majority of our boards require a commitment of approximately one day a month and offer the chance for people to use their skills, knowledge and experience, often from outside public service, to ensure assurance is given to Islanders.
