The Recruitment & Employment Confederation (REC) announced the election of a new board member with expertise in healthcare staffing, as the sector gears up for a change in the NHS. REC members elected Hannah Ahmed to the board ahead of the recent Annual General Meeting. She will serve an initial three-year term. Her first board meeting is in September 2023.

The REC board delivers external directors who are independent people and do not serve as company executives at REC. They bring their unique expertise in recruitment and offer objective thinking and independent views.

Ahmed founded and is managing director of HG Group, a recruitment company formed nearly five years ago that works in the nursing, critical care, midwifery/neonatal and mental health sectors. She has worked for the NHS as a trust liaison coordinator. Her election comes coincidentally as the government published its first-ever Long Term NHS Workforce Plan which aims to reduce spending on agencies.
