Friday 18 January 2019

The Channel Islands Co-operative Society is inviting applications from members interested in standing for election to serve as Director.

The Society is looking for eligible Members who "reflect its commitment to diversity, equality and inclusion" to apply for the role.

The Co-op's businesses include food and non-food retail, sub-post offices, bureau de change and other non-regulated money services, fuel forecourts, travel agency, general medical practices, pharmacies and funeral services. 

The Co-operative Society’s Chief Governance Officer and Society Secretary, Chris Lintell, said: "The Society has much to be proud of as a value-driven business at the heart of the Channel Islands. It has a turnover of approximately £200 million, property assets of more than £130 million, employs more than 1,100 colleagues and last year returned over £7 million to Members through dividends, Member discounts, travel vouchers and shared interest.  

"We look forward to receiving applications from Members who share the same passion and commitment for the Society and its role within the community in the Channel Islands."

Members with experience in retail, property, information technology, business services and the Co-operative or third sectors, can apply via the Society’s website by clicking here. 

Completed applications must be submitted by 19:00 on Friday 8 March via the Society’s website.
