PACFA is seeking volunteers with governance expertise to join the Governance Committee.
PACFA’s Governance Committee was established in 2020 to support and advise the PACFA Board on the effective governance of PACFA.
The purpose of the Governance Committee is to provide support and advice to ensure that the PACFA Board is able to fulfil its legal, ethical, and functional responsibilities through adequate governance policy development, processes for Board recruitment, induction and training, and processes for reviewing and evaluating the performance of the Board, Board Committees, individual Directors and Board Committee members.
Applicants will have relevant tertiary qualifications (e.g. law, accounting, human resources, management) and substantial knowledge and experience of organisational governance, preferably in a non-profit organisational context. Completion of the AICD Company Director’s course and membership of the AICD will be highly regarded. Eligibility to join the Working Party is predicated on training and expertise in governance, having capacity to actively contribute to the workload, and a demonstrated commitment to best practice governance.
PACFA is located in Melbourne; applications from anywhere in Australia will be considered as meetings take place via Zoom.
The Committee meets virtually every month. For information on the role of the PACFA Governance Committee, see the Terms of Reference.
