NMC Chief Executive To Step Down

The Chief Executive and registrar of the Nursing Midwifery Council (NMC) is to step down at the end of July.

Jackie Smith will stand down after more than six years in the role.

She said: "It's been an honour to lead the NMC over the past six years and I am immensely proud of everything we have achieved. Now is the right time for someone else to take the organisation forward.


"I want to pay tribute to the staff at the NMC who have worked so hard and achieved so much during my time here.

"I'd also like to thank the nurses and midwives on our register – it’s been a privilege to work with them and witness the fantastic care they deliver day in day out."

Recruitment of a new chief executive and registrar will begin in due course, according to the NMC.
