Key qualifications include:

  • Government Relations & Advocacy: understanding of local government structures and policies, ability to cultivate relationships with local officials

  • Governance, Legal & Compliance: strong understanding of legal principles, corporate governance, and compliance matters

We highly encourage nominations of female candidates to enhance diversity and equity on our Board. All backgrounds are welcome, and we promote women in leadership positions.

This is a volunteer position with a time commitment of approximately 2.5 hours per month, plus ad-hoc meetings and quarterly committee work. Board terms are three years, with directors permitted to serve two terms.

If you are interested in this opportunity, please submit your application form and resume by January 5, 2025. Applications will be reviewed, and selected candidates may be invited to meet with representatives from the Board.

An estimated salary range for this position is $70,000 - $100,000 annually, based on industry standards and location.
