Skate Australia is commencing a review of the Constitution to ensure our governance framework continues to reflect best-practice standards and aligns with Australian Sports Commission requirements.
As part of this process, the Skate Australia Board has established a Governance Working Group to provide advice, expertise and support throughout the review.
We are now inviting Expressions of Interest from members of the skateboarding and wider sporting community who would like to contribute to this important work.
About the Governance Working Group
The Governance Working Group will play an advisory role and support the Board by:
Providing feedback on proposed constitutional changes
Supporting member consultation and communication
Identifying opportunities to strengthen Skate Australia’s governance arrangements
While the group will make recommendations to the Board, members may also assist with elements of the review where relevant.
Who should express interest?
Skate Australia welcomes Expressions of Interest from individuals with experience or interest in areas including:
Sport governance and leadership
Legal or constitutional frameworks
Organisational reform and change management
Club, state or member-based administration
We strongly encourage applications from people with diverse skills, perspectives and lived experience to ensure a well-rounded and inclusive review process.
Time commitment
The Governance Working Group is expected to meet monthly, primarily online. Members will be asked to contribute to meetings and review documentation as required.
How to submit an Expression of Interest
After reviewing the Terms of Reference, interested individuals are invited to submit:
A current CV
A short statement (approximately half a page) outlining:
