Senior Leadership Position
4 weeks ago
We are seeking an exceptional candidate for the position of Chair of Council. This vital role holds the honorary title of Pro-Chancellor and is responsible for the leadership of the Council, as the governing body of the University, and ultimately for its effectiveness.
Council is the University's supreme governing body, responsible for taking all final decisions on matters of fundamental concern to the University, including our academic mission, strategic direction and financial sustainability.
The role of the Chair of Council is to promote the efficient operation of the Council, ensuring that its members work together effectively and that they, and wider stakeholders, have confidence in the procedures laid down by the University for the proper conduct of public business. The Chair is also responsible for ensuring that the Council establishes oversight and scrutiny of University leadership, at all times ensuring that the Council conducts its own affairs in accordance with accepted standards of behaviour in public life, embracing selflessness, integrity, objectivity, accountability, openness, honesty and leadership.
The nature of the role of Chair of Council requires a commitment of time as well as regular attendance on campus. This is expected to be approximately one day a week with the majority of the work being undertaken during University term-time. As such we anticipate the successful applicant being located within, or commutable distance to, the city of Leicester.
About You
We are looking for an individual who embodies the values of the University, has a proven track record of effective senior leadership at board level in a large, diverse and complex organisation and professional experience of a range of factors in the successful operation of large organisations. You will be able to demonstrate an awareness of the demands of the modern regulatory environment and expectations, so that the need for legitimate scrutiny and accountability is respected and discharged effectively by Council and its committees.
You will be an excellent communicator with the ability to network and negotiate effectively and have the ability to deal with differences of opinion in a constructive, diplomatic and sensitive manner. Whilst previous experience of management/governance in higher education is not essential, you will have an awareness of the political, economic and social dynamics of Leicester and the East Midlands and have a commitment to the values, aims and culture of the University of Leicester.
This is an excellent opportunity for an individual who is passionate about higher education and has the skills and experience to lead the University of Leicester's Council to success.
