Commissioner Public Appointments NI – Executive Office

Commissioner for Public Appointments for NI – The Executive Office Closed

As guardian of the Public Appointments process, the Commissioner shapes confidence in our public appointments by providing constructive challenge and guidance to
Government departments to ensure that public appointments are made based on merit, with proper regard for equality, and that our public services benefit from
being led by Board members with the right skills and attributes.

With around 80 regulated ALBs and their public appointees responsible for delivering a wide range of functions and vital public services, this unique role requires a highly
skilled leader with a strong ability to embrace challenge and evoke change when required. A clear communicator is essential to set the direction of the Office through
meaningful and effective interactions with key stakeholders.

We are looking for an individual who can use their skills and experience to make an effective contribution to the role.
TEO is committed to the principles of public appointments based on merit with independent assessment, openness and transparency of process. TEO is committed
to providing equality of opportunity and welcomes applications regardless of gender, age, marital status, disability, religion, ethnic origin, political opinion, sexual
orientation or whether or not you have dependents. We would particularly welcome applications from those in age group 18 – 39, women, and those who have a
disability, as these groups have traditionally been under‑represented.

This is a part time appointment, with a commitment of 75 days per annum (approximately 1½ days per week). The term of appointment will be for a single period of 5
years, starting on the date of appointment.
