CLOSED Independent Director, NZIS Board

NZIS

In support of the organisation's objectives for growth, innovation and excellence in the surveying and spatial professional environment, NZIS is seeking applications for appointment as an independent director on the Board of NZIS. The term of appointment is for three years, with a maximum of three terms. There are six directors in total, two of whom are required to be independent of NZIS membership.

The Board is responsible to Council and the membership for the medium-term health and prosperity of NZIS, in accordance with the Strategic Plan objectives and vision. The directors set the direction of NZIS and monitor management’s performance on behalf of the NZIS Council and stakeholders.

In addition to core skills of commercial experience, governance, risk management and strategic planning, the Board requires a person with an affinity to the surveying and spatial profession although specific experience in the profession is not essential for this appointment.

Particular areas of expertise that would make a valuable contribution to the Board at this stage include a strong background and experience in marketing, brand development and relationships. As of November, there will be no women on the NZIS Board and a strong preference will be given towards creating gender diversity.
