RYA NI Board Director recruitment open

RYA Northern Ireland is recruiting three new Board Director positions, two Independent Directors and one Nominated Director, to help deliver the Navigating the Future strategy.

The Board is particularly keen to hear from people with skills or experience in marketing, sponsorship, fundraising, communications and PR, measuring and understanding impact, sailing or sports development, and charity governance. Applications are welcome from people with or without a sailing or boating background.

Chair Gavin Watson and CEO Greg Yarnall say it's an exciting time to get involved, with club membership and participation continuing to grow across Northern Ireland.

Directors are appointed for a three year term, with the Board meeting six times a year plus the AGM. The role is unremunerated, though reasonable travel and subsistence expenses are covered.

Meet the board: Jill Heron
