Recruitment notice

Camden is seeking to recruit an independent member to serve on the council’s audit and corporate governance committee.

The committee plays a vital role in ensuring public confidence in the council’s audit and corporate governance arrangements.  Specifically, the committee is responsible for considering a wide range of matters relating to the council’s internal and external audit activity, risk management, treasury management, and other wider corporate governance activities.

As an independent member, you would be expected to have a financial, accountancy or audit background and have experience in corporate governance. You would be expected to attend meetings of the audit and corporate governance committee (approximately five a year) in a non-voting capacity, and be able to provide advice, experience and insight.

Anyone wishing to put themselves forward for this role should be able to demonstrate a commitment to good governance in the public sector, and preferably have some knowledge of local government or other public bodies.

Persons who wish to be considered must not be current or former councillors or officers of Camden Council, or a close friend or relative of such a person.

An annual allowance of £1,048 is available to the successful candidate.

To apply for the role please download, read through the full role description and person specification, and then complete the application pack. This should be returned as set out in the pack.

For further information on the role please contact Michael Bradley, head of internal audit on 020 7974 6031.

The deadline for applications is 11pm on Sunday 4th September 2016. Interviews will be conducted on Wednesday 14th September 2016.
