We are seeking up to 3 independent Non-Executive Directors (NED) to join the Jersey Sport Board. The successful candidate/s will have NED responsibilities to Jersey Sport. Through the last Board Review we are particularly interested in those candidates that have experience in safeguarding, legal, fundraising or inclusion.
As a Director you must have a passion for sport and physical activity and a strong track record in your business field. Alongside our Chair you will be committed to improving the health and wellbeing of islanders and ensuring sport and physical activity in Jersey are equitable and accessible to all islanders.
The Chair and Directors are volunteers and are non remunerated.
The successful candidate will have the same general legal responsibilities to Jersey Sport as any other Director. The Board as a whole is collectively responsible for the success of the organisation, which is also a Charity.
All Directors must act in the way they consider, in good faith, would be most likely to promote the success of Jersey Sport (JS) for the benefit of islanders as a whole. In doing so, the Directors must have regard (among other matters) to:
• The likely consequences of any decision in the long term;
• The interests of JS employees;
• The need to foster JS stakeholder relations;
• The desirability of JS to maintain and promote a reputation for high standards for itself and the sector we represent;
• The need to act fairly;
• The financial resources available to the organisation;
• The long-term financial viability of the organisation.
