Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club is looking for four people to join the club’s General Committee from March 2024.
The club’s Nominations Panel has been in place since 2020, and it has worked hard to address the critically important task of ensuring that our General Committee has the necessary skills, experience and diversity.
The General Committee leads and oversees the club’s strategic planning, provides stewardship of its assets on behalf of the membership, and monitors its financial position and performance against an annually approved budget and financial forecast.
Roles, which are voluntary and non-executive, involve attending monthly General Committee meetings and sub-committees.
We are looking to broaden the current range of skills, knowledge and experience on the General Committee. We are committed to ensuring that people from all backgrounds feel welcome in cricket and we want to promote diversity and inclusion across our game at all levels throughout our county.
There are two routes by which individuals can join the General Committee.
Applying for an elected position
An official proposal form must be completed by any member wishing to apply for an elected position on the General Committee and a copy is available here...
It should be returned to the Chief Executive by 5pm on 1 November 2023.
Copies can also be obtained from the club by email to questions@trentbridge.co.uk or by telephone on 0115 899 0300 (9.30am to 4.30pm Monday to Friday).
All candidates for election will be interviewed by the Nominations Panel in November or December 2023.
If you wish to stand for election you must be a current member of the club, have been a member for at least two consecutive years, and have been entitled to vote for a period of not less than two calendar years as of 31 October 2023.
Applying to be considered for nomination
The role of the Nominations Panel is also to search for suitable candidates outside of the club’s current membership. Therefore anyone applying via the nomination route does not need to be a current member, but they will need to join the club if they are successful.
Anyone who wishes to be considered for nomination should send a CV and a covering letter by 5pm on 1 November 2023 to Linda Allen, Head of Business Support (linda.allen@trentbridge.co.uk). You can also send your documents by post to Linda at Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club, Trent Bridge, Nottingham, NG2 6AG.
Interviews for the nominated route are likely to be held in December 2023 or January 2024.
All candidates will be interviewed by the Club’s Nominations Panel, who will appoint to two positions, with the other two positions decided by the members through an election. Members who meet the necessary criteria to stand for election may use both routes.
