Peter Wyman, chair of the Care Quality Commission, said:
“I am very pleased to welcome Jora to the Care Quality Commission as a non-executive Board member.
“I am sure that he will bring fresh insight and vigour to help us continue to drive forward our five year strategy.
“Jora’s experience in digital strategy and transformation will be particularly relevant as CQC develops an even more intelligence-driven approach to regulation that is able to take advantage of new technology.
“On behalf of the rest of the Board, I would like to welcome Jora to CQC and I look forward to working with him.”
