The University of Leeds is seeking to appoint high-calibre individuals with broad leadership qualities, who can add value to the work of the Council, the University’s governing body.
Key attributes include:
- ability to operate at board level in a significant organisation and committed to being an active Council participant
- affinity with the University’s culture, values and strategy, and its ambitions to make a societal impact locally, nationally and globally;
- a personal commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion;
- a commitment to exercising standards of good conduct in public life; and
- sound and independent judgement and a belief in collective responsibility and decision-making.
While welcoming broad experience from any sector, we are particularly keen to hear from people who can demonstrate the following:
- regional and/or international impact in their business or charitable roles;
- education and education technology experience;
- strategic finance and/or estates experience;
- strategic communications and brand experience.
However, we also welcome candidates with less direct knowledge of these areas.
Whilst many Council members are resident in the Leeds region, this is not a prerequisite. We are proud to be a multi-cultural community, and value diversity. We welcome applications from all sections of society, and especially from individuals from under-represented groups.
The expected commitment is around ten days per year for an initial three-year period. Although not remunerated all reasonable expenses will be paid.
