    The current Chair of The Advisory Group on Hepatitis is standing down at the end of December 2008, and therefore we are looking to appoint a new Chair as a replacement. The successful candidate will be required to take up post from January 2009. The Chair will provide leadership to the AGH and will be responsible for its effective operation. Candidates will be either a senior doctor or scientist with an interest in viral hepatitis and a proven record of achievement and personal credibility within their own field. In addition, candidates will be an experienced and effective committee chair with the ability to harness contributions from a range of members with expertise in different fields, and a good communicator who is able to present complex issues in clear and simple language to the public, healthcare professionals and media if necessary.

Members are entitled to allowances for subsistence and travel, whilst on AGH business, at standard Health Protection Agency rates. The appointment will be for an initial period of up to 3 years.
