Thursday 09 March 2023

The Channel Island Coop is looking for eligible members interesting in applying to join its board of Directors to help "shape future direction of the business".

Applicants with experience in retail, IT, and e-commerce fulfilment are particularly needed while members with strategic, financial, and commercial skills are also being asked to apply.

Jon Bond, Chair of the Board at CI Coop, said: “As we continue to evolve with the everchanging retail landscape, this is an incredibly exciting time to join our team. Not only will this position give Members a chance to bring new perspective to our Society, it also welcomes a unique opportunity for our customers to help us on our mission to making a real difference to our community.

“When we look at applications, we are seeking applicants who already have a deep commitment to our values and principles, have proven strategic, financial, and commercial skills, experience to help provide independent oversight to the Coop’s governance and preferably have senior leadership experience. We are looking forward to welcoming our latest board member and are confident that we will have some fantastic applications come forward.”
