CUBO is undergoing an exciting period of strategic review, with a new strategy due to be published in spring 2027. With this in mind, the Executive Committee is actively seeking to build its capacity and ensure coverage in membership representation in order to support successful delivery of CUBO's emerging strategic priorities. Alongside steering CUBO’s strategic focus, Executive Committee members also play a crucial role in overseeing CUBO’s governance and finances.
The role holders will bring to bear their broad understanding of commercial and campus services within higher education, and their ability to work collaboratively and constructively challenge, in order to provide sector insight and support to CUBO’s effective governance and organisational development. In fulfilling the responsibilities of the role, the role holders may be asked to participate in occasional working groups, project meetings, or member engagement activities as required.
The role is supported at the strategic level by the CUBO Chair and Executive Committee, and operationally by the CUBO team:
The likely time commitment is outlined in the accompanying application form and role descriptor; employer support is essential to allow time for meeting attendance, preparation, and engagement with CUBO activity. Terms of office and the expenses policy are addressed in the covering information in the application form.
The deadline for applications is noon on Monday 07 December 2026. Interviews for short-listed applicants are provisionally scheduled for the w/c 11 January 2027.
