The Mission to Seafarers is delighted to invite applications for the role of Human Resources Trustee and Member of Remuneration Committee. We are here for the world’s 1.89 million seafarers in an ever-changing environment, contributing to a world in which every seafarer and their family, irrespective of faith or cultural background, will enjoy a high quality of well-being and the maximum opportunity to thrive and find fulfilment.
If you are a qualified and experienced human resource professional willing to join our Remuneration Committee and provide advice and guidance to the Board as we make decisions on human resource matters and remuneration, we want to hear from you.
The Charity is led by a high calibre Board of Trustees who provide appropriate oversight, strategic direction, expertise, support and contacts for the Mission’s work and hold meetings a minimum of four times a year (usually January, April, July and October). The Remuneration Committee normally meets once a year with occasional ad hoc meetings as required.
Each Trustee term lasts for three years and Trustees may be appointed to the Board for up to three consecutive three-year terms. The time commitment for this role is circa eight days a year inclusive of attendance at Board meetings, membership of the Remuneration Committee, preparation for board and committee meetings as well as ad hoc conversations with Board members or senior staff between formal meetings and attendance at events throughout the year.
Whilst the Charity has a large global footprint, most of its global work is carried out through locally employed personnel in the various regions, some of which are grant funded by the UK entity. The remit of the Remuneration Committee is therefore primarily staff in the United Kingdom with opportunity to contribute expertise in broader Board discussions including those relating to Human Resources Management globally.
We are especially keen to invite applications from female candidates and candidates from diverse ethnicities to ensure that our Board is diverse.
