Senior Regulatory Lawyer and Deputy Clerk to the Board

2 months ago


Bournemouth, Bournemouth, United Kingdom Bournemouth University Full time

About the Role

Bournemouth University is a leading institution in a highly regulated sector, with increasing regulatory requirements impacting all areas of its activity. The Senior Regulatory Lawyer and Deputy Clerk to the Board will lead the provision of regulatory legal advice to the University and the Board across a diverse remit. In addition, the postholder will hold the formal role of Deputy Clerk to the Board and as part of their duties, will ensure that the Board and all its members and Committees have full clerking support at all times.

The University Board

The Board oversees the strategic development of the University and ensures the effective use of resources and the general solvency of the institution.

Led by an externally appointed Chair, the Board comprises members from within higher education, industry, and commerce as well as representatives of the students and academic and professional services staff.

The Vice-Chancellor and certain members of the University Executive Team are Board Members.

There are six sub-committees that report to the Board, including:

  • Audit, Risk, and Governance
  • Finance and Resources
  • Remuneration
  • Nominations
  • Student Experience, Quality, and Standards

The Role

The Senior Regulatory Lawyer and Deputy Clerk to the Board will work across the University and directly with the University Executive Team (UET), and Heads of Faculties and Services, to lead on and deliver high-quality specialist legal advice with a regulatory focus and a fully compliant corporate governance function.

This role will lead on the provision of specialist legal advice to enable the University to operate compliantly within regulatory frameworks, including:

  • Office for Students (OfS)
  • Consumer Protection Law
  • Charity Law
  • Data Protection Law

With the support of the Senior Governance Managers, the postholder will be expected to draft and review specialist legal and governance documentation to meet regulatory and publication requirements; draft and review contracts for the University; and work directly with the University Executive, and Board and Committee Chairs in advising and writing Board and Committee papers.

By working closely with the Clerk of the Board, and all Board and Committee members, you will ensure the University meets the requirements of the CUC Governance Code and remove single points of failure as a full Deputy Clerk to the Board. Supporting the delivery of Corporate Governance activities, you will lead on Independent Effectiveness Reviews, Board Recruitment, and regulatory reporting, policies, and procedures.

When deputising for the Clerk, the postholder will be required to liaise directly with the Chair and Deputy Chair of the Board, as well as the Vice-Chancellor as the Accountable Officer and the OfS as regulator.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead on the provision of specialist legal advice to enable the University to operate compliantly within regulatory frameworks
  • Draft and review specialist legal and governance documentation to meet regulatory and publication requirements
  • Work directly with the University Executive, and Board and Committee Chairs in advising and writing Board and Committee papers
  • Support the delivery of Corporate Governance activities, including Independent Effectiveness Reviews, Board Recruitment, and regulatory reporting, policies, and procedures

Requirements

  • Strong understanding of regulatory frameworks and compliance requirements
  • Excellent legal and governance knowledge and expertise
  • Ability to work effectively with senior stakeholders, including the University Executive Team and Board Members
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills

Benefits

Bournemouth University employees are entitled to a range of benefits, including:

  • 30 days annual leave (plus bank holidays and Christmas closure days)
  • Hybrid working (minimum 2 days in the office)
  • Local Government Pension Scheme, with 18% employer contributions
