Mountains to Sea Conservation Trust Board members
New Zealand is perched on the edge of a defining moment in the stewardship of our environment, biodiversity, and our communities. Similarly, our organisation - the Mountains to Sea Conservation Trust (MTSCT) - is poised to support ambitious initiatives in this area and to strengthen and scale up the successful framework we have built over 21 years of operation across Aotearoa.
We are seeking expressions of interest for four to five individuals to join our board to add value to our Trust. The key skills and experience the Board are seeking are:
• Governance experience - to support Strategic review
• Accounting experience for future treasurer role
• Communication and marketing experience
• Health and Safety knowledge to support this portfolio
Other desirable skills include strong Mātauranga Māori knowledge and a passion for conservation and restoration.
If you have skills and experience in any of these areas and are interested in getting involved, please get in touch with an Expression of Interest letter and copy of your CV to hollie@mountainstosea.org.nz by 31/10/2024.
