The Role

Torbay invites nominations for two (2) Non-Executive Directors on our Board of Management, who will support strategic leadership, manage risk, and provide organisational oversight and governance.

Our Board is highly valued for their contribution to ensuring the vision, mission, and strategic direction of the organisation are aligned and that all governance standards are met.  A position on our board provides a genuine opportunity to contribute to the wider community and genuinely make a difference for the better in the lives of older people. 

Eligible applications will be required to undertake a satisfactory National Police Check, and hold a current Directors ID.

Directors are paid a small honorarium to cover their costs of undertaking this position.
