Nominated Director (focus on Competition Sport) British Mountaineering Council

Location: Remote

Date Posted: 02/04/2023

Closing Date: 02/05/2023

Job description

To balance the composition and skills of our Board, the BMC is now inviting applications for one Director from its membership during a period when the organisation is reasserting its role as a body representing mountaineers (hill walkers, rock climbers, mountaineers and indoor climbers) whilst rapidly developing its role as the National Governing Body for competition climbing.

This position will appeal to those who recognise the well-being benefits of active participation in outdoor activities and who share our care and concern for the natural environment. It provides an opportunity to gain satisfaction from contributing to decision-making and scrutiny at a time when the BMC is seeking to grow its membership and enhance its services whilst championing the environment in the context of increased outdoor participation.

The Board aspires to be both diverse and inclusive; encompassing a wide range of perspectives, approaches and experiences which we believe are essential to driving further innovation, challenge and creativity within our sporting environment – mountain, crag, and indoor.

The Board provides strategic direction, supports operational management and helps promote our activities across England and Wales in addition to governing competition climbing within the whole of the UK. The successful candidate will be part of a team expected to analyse plans and strategic options in a constructive way and help lead the future development of the BMC.

Key responsibilities are likely to include bringing an understanding of competition sport from grassroots to elite level and the associated structures and systems. Experience of competition climbing would be desirable but not essential.

There is also an opportunity to contribute to the work of various committees and task groups which report to the Board and which fulfil governance or specialist roles.

The Board currently meets about 8 times a year with a mixture of evening virtual meetings and full day face to face meetings which most often will take place at the Manchester office. In addition, there will be additional business between meetings (email, correspondence / conference calls / relevant reading) and in total the role will take a minimum of 20 days a year.

We have five core values: community, adventure, sustainability, aspiration and respect. Within the latter, we celebrate the rich variety of British climbing, hill walking and mountaineering, build inclusive relationships and respect each other. In line with this we are keen to achieve a more diverse Board and we encourage and welcome applications from under-represented groups, in particular people from ethnic minorities, people with disabilities and women.

To be eligible for appointment, candidates must be a member of the BMC, and have their appointment supported by two members of the BMC who are over the age of 18 and eligible to vote at the BMC’s Annual General Meetings.
