The challenge is how you are able to accomplish the organisation's objective to a high quality, with the constraints that currently challenge charitable organisations.
Fundamentally, the role is to improve the level of care for individuals with haemophilia and related bleeding disorders and their families, and continually improve services for members; understanding that every member has different needs and expectations regarding HNZ due to personal circumstances and demographics.
Some of the key challenges:
