🌟 EQN is looking for a new Chairperson 🌟
We are looking for a dynamic new Chair of The Equilibrium Network, as our founding Chair, Caroline Cole will be stepping down in February 2025. This is a unique opportunity to help steer an increasingly influential network that is making a meaningful contribution towards a more inclusive and equitable industry.
Founded in 2014, with the aim of enabling women to have equal influence in the design and delivery of the built environment, we have grown phenomenally. We are currently a network of around 1,000 women and men, endorsing and supporting our aims in 50 countries across the world – and we continue to grow at a pace.
The current Chair and Steering Group members are all volunteers, senior players in their professions, who share a desire to create a more balanced and diverse industry. As a not-for-profit organisation, the role of Chair is a pro bono appointment.
The Steering Group meets quarterly but the Chair’s role may, at times, require the equivalent commitment of around a day a month. It is likely therefore that the new Chair will have the support of a sympathetic employer.
Given the interdisciplinary nature of EQN, interest is welcomed from architects, engineers, landscape architects, contractors, surveyors, policy makers, planners and urbanists, as well as those working in client organisations, academia, other built environment consultancies and institutes.
If you would like to find out more, do get in touch by sending us a message through our company page on Linkedin https://lnkd.in/etRc76SP, or our website - https://lnkd.in/eEApxD6j
To express your interest in the role, we will need to receive no more than a couple of pages explaining why you would like to get involved, and outlining the knowledge, skills and expertise you bring to the table. All expressions of interest will be considered, and selected applicants will be interviewed by the EQN nominations committee.
The closing date for applications is Monday 23 December 2024, with interviews in January 2025.
