Applications close at 9 a.m. Wednesday 21st January.

Time commitment: 4 – 5 hours per month, in term time.

Who we are

Bournemouth & Poole College is the largest provider of further education and apprenticeships in our area. Our core focus is on developing the work skills of our students, so that when they leave us, they are ready to start or to progress within their chosen career.

Our purposes are to help people improve their lives through education and training, and to enable employers to recruit and train the staff they need.

Through inspiring, teaching and learning, we develop our students’ work skills, life skills and knowledge to build a thriving local economy and community.

About the role

The role of the Governor is fundamental to strong and effective Governance and is, therefore, key to Bournemouth & Poole College’s continued success. The appointed Governors will provide expertise in their area and ensure the collaboration of Governors is effective and of the highest standards, working as a coherent unit and working in close partnership with the Management Team, to achieve the College’s strategy and objectives.

Together, the College Board will review the College’s mission, consider strategic developments, systematically monitor the College and management performance, review and monitor the implementation of a range of college policies, and ensure compliance with statutory requirements at all times.

This current campaign of recruitment is part of our succession planning strategy, and we hope to engage people who have the ambition and mindset to develop as governors and look to the future opportunity of Board Chair or Vice Chair.

Who we are looking for

Recognising our ambitious strategy and aspirations for further development, we seek to engage leaders and experts to support the Board in this journey, and bring a passion for success and recognition of the value of post-16 education to society.

Governors are innovative and dynamic individuals who will share in the College’s vision and help us deliver our ambitions.

We are currently looking to recruit new Governors with experience in any of the following areas:

Education – Curriculum & Quality
Audit

Most importantly, we want people to join our Board who have an understanding and passion for what we do and why we do it. Education is an important time and stage for every student, and as a Board, we have the ability to impact and influence the direction of travel of the College for the benefit of future generations across the region.

Peridot Partners and Bournemouth & Poole College are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and our client expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
