Professional Advisors

Professional Advisors are appointed and trained by the Board to:

  • Advise healthcare organisations on appointing healthcare chaplains including the professional content of job descriptions;
  • Represent the professional associations at interviews for chaplains’ posts as impartial external assessors of the professional ability of candidates;
  • Ensure that recruitment and selection to chaplains’ posts are fair, consistent and open and that the best candidate for the post is appointed;
  • Monitor the recruitment and selection of chaplains across the UK.
