The Role

The Board provides strategic leadership, governance oversight and long-term direction for the organisation. The Board ensures Basketball SA operates sustainably, ethically and in alignment with its Strategic Plan and constitutional responsibilities.

  • Supporting organisational performance and accountability
  • Appointing and overseeing the Chief Executive Officer
  • Upholding strong governance and ethical standards


Criteria

  • Strategic leadership and organisational development
  • Finance, accounting or audit
  • Legal or governance
  • Government relations or public policy
  • Commercial or business operations
  • Marketing, communications or brand strategy
  • Project or risk management
  • Sport administration or community leadership

Previous board or governance experience is desirable but not essential.
