CENSIS seeks new Governing Board members
Board Opportunities
Mr Bob Downes, Chairman
The Chairman of CENSIS, Bob Downes, wishes to appoint two new non-executive directors from industry to the Governing Board.
The responsibilities of the Board include strategic direction, management and governance of CENSIS, policy setting, and approving project funding applications. The Board comprises 12 members plus Chair, and is designed to have strong representation from industry.
Enquiries are invited from experienced candidates with senior leadership or Board level experience in an appropriate enabling technology sector, particularly in the development and application of technology in a commercial environment, and with an understanding of the current public sector funding landscape.
Experience in the following areas would be beneficial, but not essential:
- The professional development of younger researchers, new graduates, and postdoctoral research engineers
- A knowledge of industry and academic collaborations, particularly associated with postgraduate taught and research programmes
- Supporting the career progression and development of women in engineering
This is an exceptional opportunity to share your talents and expertise to make a positive economic impact on the technology sector in Scotland and beyond.
Informal enquiries may be made to , CENSIS Chairman.
CENSIS welcomes enquiries from everyone irrespective of gender and ethnic group but, as women and members of ethnic minority groups are currently under-represented at this level of post, we would encourage applications from members of these groups. Appointment will be based on merit alone.
