SWM, closing date: on the appointment of successful candidates.

Sustainability West Midlands (SWM) was established in 2002 as an independent, not-for-profit organisation. We strive to make the West Midlands region more sustainable, fairer and greener for all and work across the whole West Midlands, including the Combined Authority area as well as the surrounding areas of Worcestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire and Staffordshire. Our vision is that the West Midlands will lead in contributing to the national target of net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, while addressing health inequalities and driving inclusive growth.

This is framed through our Roadmap to 2030.

We have over 200 diverse members who are leading individuals and organisations in the private, public, and third sectors, including large businesses like Arup, Mott Mac Donald, Lyreco and Severn Trent. We are a unique organisation working with 1,000’s of cross-sector stakeholders across the region. Alongside our membership, we deliver a broad range of consultancy projects, providing independent advice to a range of customers, including combined authorities, local authorities, the NHS, and the private sector.

We are seeking a new Chair and two Directors to join us and help support our continued growth.

We are hoping to find a Director with specific experience in financial management.

We welcome applications from those who may not have served on a Board before.
