Join us and help promote the highest standards in the practice of urology for the benefit of patients, by fostering education, research and clinical excellence.
Applications close: 9 a.m. Monday 23rd February 2026
Location: Virtual / London
Who we are
The British Association of Urological Surgeons (BAUS) is the professional membership organisation for urologists and urological teams in the UK. We are a registered charity representing over 2,500 members, including consultants, trainees and allied health professionals, all committed to improving the care and outcomes of people with urological conditions.
BAUS delivers education and professional development through national conferences, specialist training and clinical audit, playing a key role in setting professional standards and sharing best practice across the UK and internationally.
With our headquarters at the Royal College of Surgeons of England, we are an established and respected voice within the medical community — and our motto, united strength is stronger, reflects the power of collaboration across our membership and partners.
About the roles
The board of trustees provides collective leadership, oversight and strategic guidance to ensure BAUS fulfils its charitable objectives and continues to thrive for the benefit of patients and professionals alike.
Trustees work closely with our senior team and council to oversee strategy, risk and resources, ensuring that our work reflects the evolving needs of the urological community and wider healthcare landscape.
We now seek to appoint two new lay trustees as we look to further develop and grow our impact. These key roles represent an exciting opportunity to contribute to the continued development of an organisation at the heart of advancing urological care and professional excellence.
Who we are looking for
We are particularly interested in hearing from candidates who bring skills and perspectives that complement those of our existing Board and membership. In particular, we would welcome:
- Public affairs and policy experience, ideally with an understanding of health or professional regulation, to help strengthen BAUS’s engagement with government and external stakeholders.
- Strategic communications or advocacy expertise, with the ability to help shape our voice and influence policy and patient engagement.
- Income generation expertise, ideally from the pharmaceutical industry.
- Patient Engagement, ideally with experience of patient and public engagement, advocating for those with lived experience
- Governance/legal experience, ideally with medical association experience
You do not need prior board experience to apply. We welcome expressions of interest from those new to trusteeship who share our values, are committed to public benefit and are keen to learn and contribute.
BAUS is deeply committed to inclusion and widening participation across our membership, leadership and governance. We particularly encourage applications from women, people from underrepresented backgrounds and those with lived experience of the issues we address.
Time commitment
The equivalent of approximately 1 – 2 days per month. The board meets five to six times a year, usually in London or virtually. Trustees are expected to attend our annual scientific meeting (3 days each June). Each trustee will sit on a clinical sub-committee. They are encouraged to engage in BAUS events and working groups that align with their interests and expertise.
