Liverpool, United Kingdom The National Oceanography Centre Full time

Head of Governance

National Oceanography Centre, Southampton or Liverpool

Permanent

Full time (37 hours per week)

£62,062 - £68,272

Who are we?

We are the National Oceanography Centre (NOC) - the UK's centre of excellence for oceanographic sciences. We are a national research organisation, delivering integrated marine science and technology from the coast to the deep ocean.

We are made up of a dynamic and vibrant community whose focus is on improving the world in which we live. Our work is balanced by our strong sense of purpose, values and behaviours and an unwavering commitment to a ‘one NOC’ approach.

We have a rich history dating back to 1949, and our future has never looked more exciting as we aim to be the world’s most innovative oceanographic institution.

About the role

Good governance is critical to the management of NOC. It is how NOC will work to meet its strategic, financial, and operational objectives, and achieve long-term sustainability that fosters public and community trust. As a charitable company, meeting NOC's legal compliance responsibilities and successfully managing its corporate information is clearly important. This post takes the lead in ensuring NOC complies with all of the legal requirements set out by the Charity Commission and company law, working at all levels of the organisation.

NOC has established robust legal, governance, risk and compliance policies and procedures that need leadership to ensure they embed across the organisation and create a culture of good governance. This role is critical to taking the NOC Governance frameworks out across NOC ensuring that NOC operates in line with the Charity Governance Code and considers risk in all of its day-to-day decision-making.

About you

We are looking for a qualified solicitor with employment law experience. An experienced Legal and Governance professional with significant experience in delivering fit-for-purpose support services, and governance frameworks, including compliance activities for complex organisations. This will require an adaptable individual, with the ability to engage our staff in the importance of good governance and how it brings benefits across our sphere of activity. The post holder will have the opportunity to develop and implement a new Information Governance approach for NOC and will have a key role in overseeing the legal relationships, delivery partners, suppliers, and customers and maintaining internal relationships on an overall business partnering basis. The ability to demonstrate a positive and proactive approach to driving change in a busy research environment is a must for the post.

Why the NOC?

We offer a generous set of benefits including 28 days annual leave, plus 3.5 local closure days and 8 public bank holidays, and a contributory Group Personal Pension Plan.

We promote an inclusive and supportive environment where our people can meet their full potential.

Location

This position can be based in Southampton or Liverpool. Our Southampton site is well connected by public transport and has ample cycle parking in addition to free onsite car-parking. The Liverpool centre is part of the University campus and is only a short walk from the city centre and Lime Street station.

The NOC has a hybrid working approach where for most positions staff can work from home up to 2 days per week. If you are interested in this position, but require a more flexible working arrangement, please contact the recruitment team using the contact details below.
