Swim England is the national governing body for swimming, diving, water polo, open water swimming, and synchronised swimming in England. It forms part of British Swimming, a federation of the national governing bodies of England, Scotland, and Wales.
Swim England West Midlands Region has an exciting vacancy that has recently opened up; to bring onboard a new Regional Chair. This is an opportunity to join the region during a period of evolution and change, with the recent release of the new 4 year strategy, which sees a focus on robust governance, supporting and educating the workforce, improving communication, growing the membership, and strengthening relationships along the pathway.
We welcome applications from someone who has a passion to drive change and improve our services, as well as an enthusiasm to bring key stakeholders together, motivate them and work in partnership, with the members of the region at the heart of every decision made. Whilst experience working within the aquatic community would be beneficial, we acknowledge that someone from a business, financial or sports background, that may be non-aquatic related, would bring a lot to the table in driving our strategy and ambitions forward.
The role involves leadership to the Board of directors, liaison with Swim England and our regional counties and sub-committees, acting in the best interests of the region and playing an influential part in the Swim England governance system. It is key that we find someone who can be readily available to attend and chair meetings and deal with issues that may arise as and when required. If you have experience in good governance, chairing a board or committee, working to drive strategic plans and goals, and have good communication skills, organisation skills, as well as people management experience, we want to hear from you.
