Oakville ON, Canada Oakville Soccer Club Full time

Join Our Team:
Shape the Future of OSC

The Oakville Soccer Club is a thriving not-for-profit organization committed to providing top-quality soccer experiences to our community. We are currently seeking dedicated and skilled individuals to serve on our volunteer Board of Directors, contributing their expertise to help steer our club's future. This is an exciting opportunity to play a vital role in the governance of our organization, ensuring its continued growth and success.

What is a Governance Board?

A Governance Board, in the context of the Oakville Soccer Club, is a volunteer, strategic and policy-setting body responsible for providing overarching guidance and oversight to the organization. Its primary role is to establish and monitor the high-level objectives, policies, and mission alignment of the Club. Importantly, the Governance Board does not engage in the day-to-day operational activities, personnel matters, or individual team-related decisions, including coaching assignments or player placements. Instead, it focuses on ensuring the long-term success, financial sustainability, and ethical conduct of the Club, safeguarding its commitment to its mission and values. The Governance Board's primary objective is to maintain the Club's strategic course and foster its overall development.

Qualifications We're Seeking

OSC is looking for passionate professionals from Oakville and nearby to join our Board of Directors. We need dedicated individuals with professional skills, interested in governance, community investment, and making an impact. A love for soccer and connection to the Oakville Soccer Club is welcomed. The key is a commitment to using your expertise to benefit our organization and community. Whether you're skilled in finance, governance, or other fields, your desire to give back is what counts. Soccer knowledge is a plus, but not essential.

We seek professionals who are connected to the Oakville community through residence, employment, or association with the Club, and who have expertise in the following areas:

· Government Relations & Advocacy , including an understanding of local government structures and policies, and an ability to cultivate strong relationships with local government officials to advocate for the club’s interests

· Human Resources , and Organizational Development, including experience in performance management, talent development and executive coaching.

· Governance, Legal and Compliance , with a strong understanding of legal principles, relevant to non-profit organizations where possible, and knowledge of corporate governance, and compliance matters to ensure our club operates ethically and maintains effective governance structures.

We highly encourage nominations of female candidates to enhance diversity and equity on our Board of Directors, reflecting the community we serve. We invite candidates from all backgrounds, emphasizing diversity and promoting women in leadership.

The Volunteer Commitment/Requirements

· One scheduled Board Meeting per month for approximately 2.5 hours.

· Ad-hoc meetings and conversations as required.

· Participation in one committee of the Board (Finance, Strategy, Governance) – approx. 3 hrs quarterly.

· Attendance at the Club’s flagship events (3-4 annually).

· Board terms are three years. Directors are permitted to serve two terms as per the Club’s by-laws.

Nomination Process

Nominations are open until 5:
00 p.M. on January 5, 2025. To apply, please complete the completed application form along with your resume to nominations@oakvillesoccer.ca. All application information, including the Nominations Form can be found here:

Incomplete applications will not be accepted.

Applications will not be submitted via EasyApply on LinkedIn.

During the week of January 15th, applicants may be invited to meet with representatives from OSC’s Board of Directors.

Nomination forms, with personal details redacted, will be posted to the Known Slate of Candidates on the Club’s website with the Board’s endorsements on January 24, 2025, and shared with the Club’s voting membership in preparation for the election at the Annual General Meeting.

All applicants will appear on the election ballot at the Club’s Annual General Meeting & Volunteer Recognition Event on February 8, 2025 and are asked to be present the event. The elected applicants will attend a brief meeting of the Board immediately following the AGM.

There will be three vacant positions on the board, and it's noteworthy that one existing board member, whose term has expired, is running for one of these vacancies.

We encourage you to consider this opportunity to serve your community and contribute your expertise to the Oakville Soccer Club. Join us in making a positive impact on the future of amateur sports in Oakville.

If you have any questions or need further information, please contact Katryna Indewey, Executive Director at kindewey@oakvillesoccer.ca.
