Maxwell Doku brings financial acumen to the board with his current role at the Nursing and Midwifery Council and previous positions in finance across various organizations. His experience also includes serving as a Resident Board Member at Barnet Homes Ltd and involvement in the Housing and Contract Monitoring and Scrutiny Committee at the London Borough of Barnet.
