DCMS seeks Departmental Non-Executive Board Members

DCMS is seeking to appoint new Non-Executive Board Members (NEBMs), including a new Chair of the DCMS Audit and Risk Committee. The successful candidates will exercise their role through influence and advice, supporting as well as challenging the Executive team and Ministers to continuously improve. 

In DCMS we are lucky enough to work on some of the most exciting, positive and important policies for the future of the UK. We have a critical role in driving growth and enriching the lives of people and communities and supporting the UK’s world-leading sectors that contribute so much to our economy, way of life and our reputation around the world including supporting culture, arts, media, sport and civil society. We champion sport for all at every level; our world-leading cultural and creative industries; and enhance the cohesiveness of our communities. As a Non-Executive Member you will have the opportunity to help us shape what is an exciting agenda, particularly at a time when we are taking centre stage with events that shape our national identity and future.

Appointments will be made by the Secretary of State. NEBMs provide advice on the operational implications and effectiveness of policy proposals and support getting policy translated into results. Ministers alone will decide policy, with advice from officials.
