Basketball continues to experience explosive growth, especially amongst youth. Basketball appeals to all genders, all ages, ethnicities and cultures – it is a global sport with further unrealised potential.
Strong governance is key to realising this potential. Applications are invited for an appointed position on the Board of Directors. A vacancy has become available as a result of an incumbent not seeking a second term due to work commitments. Directors can complete a maximum of two consecutive terms.
Directors are responsible for setting the strategic direction of basketball, national budgets and finance, meeting international obligations and monitoring progress against strategic and annual plans. The Board meets approximately eight times per annum, either face-to-face or online.
A Board Appointment Panel will assess candidates against a range of criteria including:
- An in depth understanding of governance functions and principles
- Strong commercial and financial experience
- Financial literacy
- Strategic acumen
- Knowledge of Te Ao Māori
- The ability to enhance diversity
- Knowledge of and/or interest in basketball
All applications will be considered on the merits. The Board Appointment Panel will appoint a candidate to the Appointed position.
If you believe you have the necessary attributes, please:
- submit a full CV and cover letter outlining your suitability for the role.
