Governors

2 months ago


Solihull West Midlands, United Kingdom Business & Human Rights Resource Centre Full time

Contribute to transforming the lives of learners through providing opportunities to help shape students' futures, as a Governor of Solihull College & University Centre.
Due to current Governors’ terms of office coming to an end, we have taken time to consider the breadth of skills, networks, and experience currently represented on our Governing Body, and where additional talent and expertise could add value. When considering our ambitious strategy, which is included on this microsite, we welcome the interest of committed governors who have the time and interest to contribute to our strategic planning and act as a critical friend to our Principal & CEO and her leadership team.
This is your opportunity to steer provision that benefits the students, the West Midlands’ communities, and employers directly. Being a Governor of Solihull College & University Centre is hugely rewarding and is an opportunity to make a real difference to the education standards, curriculum provision, and, importantly, the experience of our learners and apprentices.
The Corporation is accountable for the financial solvency of the College, its sound management, the quality of the service which it provides, and its educational character. Colleges must be able to respond to changes in direction of government policy and anticipate changing needs in their communities. The Corporation must be actively involved in reviewing the role of the College and in planning and managing change to ensure the long-term health and success of Solihull College & University Centre.
There are seven meetings of the Corporation throughout the academic year (September through to July), plus two additional development days held on a Saturday. In addition to this, there are additional meetings of the Search & Governance Committee, the Audit & Risk Committee, the Remuneration Committee, and the Financial Oversight Group.
It is expected that – with preparation for meetings, liaison with the College, and training – Governors should plan to spend a minimum of six hours per month undertaking the responsibilities of the role; Estates (Capital Projects, or Property Management, or Environmental Sustainability)
# Whilst having non-executive/board-level experience is desirable, what’s more important to us is your ability to work as part of our Corporation and provide the scrutiny required in an organisation of this size from a place of experience.
We need you to have a fundamental belief in the power of education and training, and how it can transform not just lives, but communities of people.
Recognising the diversity of the West Midlands, combined with our own strategic ambitions around inclusion and inclusivity, we very much encourage the interest of candidates who will support us in our ambition to further diversify the leadership and governance of Solihull College & University Centre. We acknowledge there is work to do and working hard to ensure our decision-makers are reflective of the communities we serve and include the latest EDI report for you to review as part of this microsite.
Peridot Partners and Solihull College & University Centre are, together, committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and our client expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
