This is a fantastic opportunity to join the University’s governing body as an Independent Governor.

The postholder will act as a Governor of the University, undertaking the roles and responsibilities of a Governor as outlined by the role description contained in this pack.

The main purpose of the role is to ensure that the University sets a clear vision, mission and strategy and monitors the implementation of the University’s strategic plan by the Vice Chancellor and Executive Team. Governors are expected to play an appropriate part in ensuring that the business of the Council (and any Committees to which they are also appointed) is carried out efficiently, effectively and in a manner appropriate for the proper conduct of public business. Governors should build strong and effective relationships with fellow Governors, members of the Executive Team and University staff and students, whilst avoiding involvement in the day-to-day executive management of the University.

Individual governors will normally bring specialist knowledge, expertise and skills to the Council, including, for example, knowledge of higher education, commercial enterprise or an understanding of the professional domains with which the University is engaged.

We particularly encourage applications from those with experience and/or expertise in the field of estates, financial management or business leadership/enterprise.

All University Governors are required to act fairly and impartially, in the interest of the University. They will question intelligently, debate constructively, challenge rigorously, and decide dispassionately.

If this role is of interest to you, please don’t delay in sending us your application. We will review applications and interview on an ongoing basis and the vacancy will close as soon as an appointment has been made.

Salary:

This is a voluntary position, but reasonable travel expenses will be reimbursed.

A covering letter and a copy of your CV should be emailed to
