Skinners committee members drive the work of the Company under the umbrella of the Court. Committee members play an active and vital role in the Company's work and every year the Clerk gathers interest from Skinners interested in using their expertise to provide direction to the organisation, generally for a four-year term, renewable once.
The Clerk is recruiting to fill several committee vacancies in the Committees highlighted in red below that have role descriptions included; some are open to all members of the Company and some are for particular categories of membership. Committees meet two, three or sometimes four or more times a year, generally in office hours.
If you click on the Committee you are interested in below you will see who the other members of the Committee are, how many times a year it meets and the terms of reference. Role descriptions are also available.
If you think you might be interested in joining one of our Committees then please contact the Clerk on membership@skinners.org.uk by the 29th March 2024 with a copy of your CV, an indication of the Committee/s you are interested in and how you think your skills might help. If you are enthusiastic, collaborative and interested in working with like-minded people whose diverse backgrounds and expertise drives the work of your Company you should consider getting in touch.
New Committee appointments are approved at our Corpus Christi Court meeting which takes place on the 30th May and terms of office begin after the Swearing In Court on the 11th July with meetings starting from September 2024.
