Silba is seeking a dedicated member to step into the role of National Trustee. Following a vacancy for the 2025/2026 term, the Executive Committee (EC) is inviting applications for this critical "on-call" position, serving until the General Assembly in late 2026.

 

While breaches of our Code of Conduct are rare, the National Trustee is essential to ensuring Silba remains a safe and inclusive environment. This role is about being ready and providing a trusted point of contact whenever a member needs support or wishes to report a concern.

 

Your Key Responsibilities:

• Primary Contact: Serve as the first confidential resource for reporting violations of the Code of Conduct.

• Leading the Conduct Committee: You will lead an advisory body tasked with investigating reported breaches.

• Advisory Collaboration: Work closely with the Executive Committee by investigating cases and proposing appropriate sanctions or mediation.

• Decision Support: While the Conduct Committee investigates and recommends actions, the Executive Committee holds the final decision-making authority.

• Policy & Education: Together with the Main Board, you may review the Code of Conduct or organize activities to educate our community on our shared values.
   

Who Should Apply?

We are looking for someone who values organizational integrity and member well-being. Ideal candidates are:

• Impartial: Committed to handling sensitive matters with objective fairness and proactively identifying and declaring conflicts of interest to ensure a neutral process.

• Discreet: Committed to the absolute confidentiality required when handling personal matters.

• Ready to Act: Though the role involves infrequent active cases, you must be prepared to step in with empathy and professionalism when needed.

 

Selection Process & Term

• Selection: Due to the mid-term vacancy, the Executive Committee will select the next Trustee from the pool of applicants.

• Term: The appointed Trustee will serve until the General Assembly in late 2026.

• Requirement: You must be a member of Silba to apply.
