Home > News and Events > Global recruitment expert to speak to Chairing Network

We are delighted to welcome James Carss, an expert in recruitment with specific expertise in equity, diversity and inclusion, to our next Chairing Network meet on 26 September (8-10am).

Hosted at Newcastle Cathedral, James will lead an informal discussion around fresh approaches to recruitment and guidance on giving each candidate an equal opportunity to shine at interview.

There will be the opportunity to network with other Chairs and enjoy refreshments provided by The Oswin Project. Join us if you currently chair a charitable organisation and if you are an aspiring Chair, to hear from others, share ideas or simply listen-in to the conversation. You will leave the session feeling energised about developing your board to be inclusive, relevant and futureproofed.

This event will be hosted by Colette Harrison, Development Officer, Sector Support. We hope you will join us.
