Board Chairperson

2 months ago


London, Greater London, United Kingdom Trafford Leisure Full time

Chair of the Board - Trafford Leisure

Trafford Leisure stands as the foremost provider of sports and recreational facilities in the Trafford region, boasting an annual revenue of £8 million and a dedicated workforce of over 300 individuals. Our ambitious mission is to inspire and create opportunities for the residents of Trafford to engage in physical activity and lead healthier, more fulfilling lives. We are committed to addressing health disparities within the Trafford community and motivating individuals to increase their daily physical activity.

We are at a transformative juncture as we implement Trafford Council's substantial investment initiative in leisure services. This visionary project aims to revamp our leisure centers into modern, accessible, and inspiring environments under the new branding of 'move', ensuring a legacy for future generations. Our success is driven by a collaborative ethos, working in partnership with the Council, various stakeholders in sports and health, and the diverse community and voluntary sectors to fulfill the objectives outlined in Trafford's Sport and Physical Activity Strategy, known as the Trafford Moving Strategy.

Trafford Leisure is fully dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of governance. To this end, we have devised a two-year strategy to meet all the requirements of a Tier Three Sport England organization.

The current term of our Chair, Andy Worthington OBE, will conclude soon after an impressive nine years of service. Consequently, we are in search of a new Chair who will guide the Board, nurture relationships with Trafford Council and other essential stakeholders, and collaborate closely with our CEO and Executive team to ensure the realization of our vision, operational effectiveness, and sound governance throughout this Community Interest Company (CIC).

Candidate Profile:

We are looking for an individual who is passionate about Trafford Leisure's mission. The ideal Chair will be an independent, strategic thinker with a proven track record in leading and inspiring teams through periods of transformation. A collaborative mindset is essential, along with a deep understanding of effective governance practices, sound judgment, and the ability to navigate complex environments. High levels of integrity, ethical standards, and a strong grasp of corporate governance are crucial. Experience in executive or non-executive roles within similar sectors or organizations is highly desirable. The Chair should also be an exceptional communicator and advocate for Trafford Leisure, fostering relationships and promoting our initiatives.

Responsibilities of the Chair:

  • Conduct quarterly Board meetings
  • Oversee annual performance evaluations of Directors (up to 12)
  • Facilitate the annual performance review of the CEO and provide support
  • Participate in development days (two half days per year)
  • Engage in ad hoc events and strategy partnership meetings with Trafford Council (when feasible)

The minimum commitment for this role is three years, with the possibility of extending to a maximum of nine years through two additional three-year terms. The Chair role requires an estimated commitment of approximately one day per month.

This position is voluntary, and Trafford Leisure will reimburse reasonable expenses incurred while fulfilling the role. The Chair, along with other Non-Executive Directors, will also receive a complimentary membership to all Trafford Leisure facilities, offering significant savings annually.

If you resonate with Trafford Leisure's objectives and values and are eager to make a meaningful impact for the community, we encourage you to consider this opportunity.

Diversity and Inclusion Commitment:

At Trafford Leisure, we recognize that equality, equity, diversity, and inclusion are vital to our success and the achievement of our vision. We aspire to be a diverse and responsible employer, understanding that a varied Board and workforce are essential for fostering innovative ideas and perspectives. We particularly welcome applications from individuals belonging to minority, marginalized, and diverse groups, and we are committed to ensuring a fair and unbiased recruitment process. Previous experience as a Chair or in a similar role is not mandatory, but candidates should possess substantial senior or executive leadership experience, as well as non-executive or trustee experience on high-caliber boards, ideally in positions such as Chair, Vice Chair, or with experience chairing sub-committees.

We look forward to receiving your application.
