The Role
Chairs of Audit and Finance & Capital Development Committees.
Remunerated position: £6,000 p.a. (which may be waived by the appointees)
For 178 years, York St John University has been educating people from all backgrounds in the heart of the historic city of York. Originally established in 1841 as one of two Anglican teacher training colleges, the institution gradually expanded its course portfolio from the mid-20th century onwards, before achieving University status in 2006. Today, almost 7,000 students from more than 100 nationalities, alongside 900 staff, make up a thriving learning and research community. The University provides a broad portfolio of undergraduate and postgraduate courses that range from Law to Languages and Business to the Arts and is gradually expanding into new markets, including Degree Apprenticeships.
In 2019 the University launched a new long-term Strategy, one that considers its role in a changing 21st-century world and responds to a period of political uncertainty and market unpredictability to set the institution on a clear path for the future. After several successful years of recruitment, the Strategy has been able to build on a stable financial starting point based on growth in student numbers and the diversification of the University’s portfolio. As a result, it sets an ambitious course ahead, recognising both the University’s vital ongoing role as an anchor institution in the local and regional community and its place as a global contributor of knowledge, innovation and opportunity. It sets a course for York St John to significantly enhance its postgraduate and international offer – supported by the launch of a new campus in London; develop new strategic partnerships around key 21st-century challenges, such as mental health and new technologies; and further modernise its digital infrastructure and campus.
We are seeking to appoint two new members of our Governing Body who will act as Chairs of Audit and Finance & Capital Development Committee. The successful candidates will provide pivotal support to our Chair of the Governing Body, Dame Julia Unwin, and work closely with our Vice Chancellor, Professor Karen Bryan, and her Executive Team.
Previous experience gained in board level leadership roles in complex organisations is therefore essential, but equally important is that you share our values and can relate to people at all levels.
Candidates must be resident in York/Yorkshire or adjacent to it for practical reasons. We value and promote diversity, are committed to equality of opportunity for all and all appointments are made on merit.
Please submit your CV and supporting cover letter to governorvacancies@yorksj.ac.uk
The closing date for applications is noon on Friday 19 February 2021
Formal interviews will be held on Monday 1 March 2021
Any queries or requests for an informal discussion with the Chair of the Governing Body, should be to the University Secretary, Dr Amanda Wilcox, c/o Catherine Barber at eso@yorksj.ac.uk
