Letter from Linda Belton, President of the RCVS

Dear Candidate,
The RCVS PIC, RVN PIC, DC and RVN DC are all committees of the RCVS which deal with allegations of professional misconduct against veterinary surgeons and veterinary nurses. As such they are a vital element of regulation and serve to assure the public that those who give veterinary care are properly qualified and fit to practise.
We are intending to make a number of appointments this year and I am delighted you are interested in one of these positions. If, having read the brief, you believe you have the requisite skills and knowledge and are committed to the seven principles of public life we would like to hear from you. These are exciting opportunities to support the RCVS in our commitment to excellent standards of veterinary care.
For a confidential conversation with Thewlis Graham Associates who are managing the process, please contact Sarah Thewlis, Managing Director on email rcvs@thewlisgraham.com. Sarah will be happy to discuss this opportunity with you and answer any questions you may have.
Yours sincerely
Linda Belton
