We are now accepting applications from Gold and Silver OPF members for two vacancies on the OPF board of directors. Our board plays a vital role in the running of the organisation and is intended to represent the voice of our membership. 

We are seeking candidates who can contribute to the diversity of perspectives on our board (e.g. diversity of gender, age, geography, organisation type and size, and professional seniority). If you are keen to contribute to the community and play an active role in the organisation, we encourage you to apply! Becoming a board member is an opportunity to:

• Be directly involved in setting the direction of the Foundation
• Represent your organisation’s priorities
• Develop new knowledge, skills and experience
• Expand your professional network

If you have any questions about the responsibilities and level of commitment required to be a board member, or simply want to chat about your interest in the position, we welcome informal enquiries and can also arrange for you to speak to an existing board member about their experience in the role. 

In line with the benefits of OPF membership, gold members will be prioritised for the positions, after which silver members will be considered. 

To apply, please email becky.mcguinness@openpreservation.org by Friday 21 May 2021 with the following information:

• Name
• Job title
• Organisation
• Reasons for applying (max 250 words)

The new directors will be appointed by a member vote at the OPF AGM on 26 May 2021.
