Unpaid role, expenses paid

Job description

The British Mountaineering Council is seeking an energetic and forward-thinking Director with expertise in health and wellbeing and a strong professional background.   

This is an exciting opportunity that offers the right candidate the ability to shape the future of the BMC and its community engagement. 

This position will appeal to those who recognise the many benefits of active participation in outdoor activities and share our care and concern for the natural environment. It provides an opportunity to gain satisfaction from contributing to decision-making and scrutiny at a time when the BMC is seeking to grow its membership and revenue, enabling it to enhance its services whilst championing the environment in the context of increased outdoor participation.  

The Board aspires to be both diverse and inclusive; encompassing a wide range of perspectives, approaches and experiences, which we believe are essential to driving further innovation, challenge and creativity within our sporting environment – mountain, crag and indoor climbing. In line with this we are keen to achieve a more diverse Board and we encourage applications from under-represented groups, in particular people from ethnic minorities, people with disabilities and women. 

To be eligible for appointment, candidates must be nominated by BMC members, a subgroup of the membership (e.g. those representing performance climbing) or a sector partner of the BMC.
