Governor, Arts University Bournemouth

Arts University Bournemouth (AUB) is seeking to appoint new Governors to join its Board. AUB is a specialist arts university with a strong reputation for creative education, and its Governors play a vital role in shaping the strategic direction of the institution.

As a Governor, you will contribute to the effective governance of the University by providing strategic oversight, challenge, and support to the executive team. You will help ensure that AUB fulfils its mission and maintains its position as a leading creative arts university.

Governors are expected to attend Board meetings and relevant committee meetings, prepare thoroughly for meetings by reading papers in advance, contribute constructively to discussions and decision-making, act in the best interests of the University at all times, and uphold the values and reputation of AUB.

The University welcomes applications from individuals with a wide range of backgrounds and expertise. No prior experience of university governance is required, as induction and ongoing support will be provided. AUB is particularly interested in candidates who can bring skills and experience in areas relevant to its strategic needs.

This is a voluntary, unpaid role. Reasonable expenses will be reimbursed.
