Port of Tyne Authority
Maritime House, Tyne Dock, South Shields, NE34 9PT
£14,857 per annum
Welcome to the Port of Tyne. As the largest UK trust port, we are an independent statutory body governed by our own unique local legislation. Playing a significant role in the UK economy and infrastructure, our primary duty is to manage, maintain, develop and improve the Port for the benefit of an increasingly wide stakeholder community. We are also the custodian and steward of the River Tyne.
THE ROLE
With a number of experienced Board Members approaching the end of their terms, we are seeking three new Non-executive Directors to join us and support the business in meeting its strategic and investment priorities. Across these appointments, we are especially interested in strengthening our team across the following areas:
- senior operational finance and commercial skills gained in a large global engineering or related organisation;
- senior operational experience gained in transport, logistics or process automation – as part of this, we are interested in people who can offer expertise in health & safety in environments characterised by similar risks;
- external stakeholder management;
- emerging technologies and AI;
- experience of HR;
- people with a regional connection – we are losing two of our most regionally connected NEDs and are keen to retain this insight.
Our compact Board is collegiate and inclusive, offering a diverse, dynamic and fast-paced setting in which to contribute.
