The Landscape Institute (LI) has launched the search for a new Chair of the Board of Trustees, inviting applications from experienced leaders with expertise in governance, strategy and the leadership of membership or charitable organisations.
Over the last few years, the LI has been making a step change in the way it works to ensure it is fit for purpose and relevant for the future. Following recent governance changes, the role of Chair of the Board has been separated from that of President. This means the Institute can appoint an independent Chair of the Board with the experience and expertise needed to help shape the strategic direction of the organisation. The role of President continues as the member-elected Chair of Council and Trustee, representing the voice of members on the Board.
The Chair of the Board will play a central role in our future, supporting the Chief Executive and senior team, and ensuring the Board fulfils its responsibilities for governance. The new Chair will ensure the organisation remains focused on its charitable objectives and strategic priorities, while maintaining strong governance and effective collaboration with the Institute’s leadership and membership.
The position is a voluntary role, with reasonable expenses covered. As the Chair is also a Trustee of the charity, candidates must meet the eligibility requirements set out by the Charity Commission. The opportunity is open to both members and non-members, enabling the Institute to attract candidates with a wide range of leadership and governance experience.
