Looking for a unique business challenge that puts your leadership skills to the test while gaining non-executive (NED) board-style experience?
Be the Business is looking for confident senior leaders and aspiring non-execs willing to contribute to a volunteer programme designed to help SMEs tackle the most pressing business problems and improve their leadership capabilities.
As a volunteer advisory board member, you’ll work collaboratively with your fellow board members to support two different business leaders to unlock the potential of their respective businesses. We ask you to commit to 12 hours over one year, working in two 6-month terms. You and your board colleagues will meet with each business leader online four times, providing effective questioning, insight, and support. In addition, one of the board members will have the opportunity to provide two additional one-on-one sessions with the business leader to provide extra support.
You will be supported by a dedicated board administrator who will provide all the support you need for scheduling, pre-reading, sharing documents, and taking actions.
What’s in it for you?
You’ll have the opportunity to demonstrate your skills as a senior leader and build your CV in a non-executive director (NED) style environment. You’ll grow your professional network and enhance your skills and knowledge of sectors and business challenges that you may not have previously been exposed to.
In recent feedback from current volunteers, benefits of supporting Be the Business programmes include:
- Improved knowledge and understanding of different industries, sectors, and SME needs
- Improved professional skills
- A feeling of having made a positive contribution
You’ll also have access to the Be the Business volunteer offer, including our deep dives into industry insights and research, as well as networking, skills development, and learning events held throughout the year.
