To align with the new Orienteering NZ Constitution we are now inviting applications from suitably skilled and experienced members to join the Orienteering NZ Board.
The Orienteering NZ Board is seeking to fill 2 vacancies – Pip Poole and Jane Harding’s current terms are up. The appointment is for a 3-year term.
The Council recently undertook a skills assessment to ensure we are covering all the desired governance skills identified as best practice but with every change in Board membership there is always an adjustment around skill balance.
We welcome applications from members with current or previous business experience especially in the areas of finance and governance.
Applicants must be current financial members of an Orienteering NZ Club.
Application forms are available here:

Please forward your application by email to the General Manager no later than 14 February 2017. Email: gm@orienteering.org.nz. All applications received will be acknowledged by email.
