Vacancy – Chairperson Recruitercode
The role
We are looking for a chairperson who endorses the importance of the Recruitercode and is able to convey this convincingly and inspiringly to peers, media, events, and educational institutions.
Under your chairmanship, we strive for greater visibility of the code, a growing number of active members, and further integration of the code in recruitment processes such as ATSs, job boards, education, and (potentially) legislation.
What are we looking for?
In addition to knowledge of the Recruitercode and demonstrable involvement in the recruitment profession, we are looking for someone who:
1. Drives the movement
The foundation has been laid. Now it is time for the next step: active dissemination and adoption of the code. We are looking for someone who can get people moving—inside and outside the board—to further promote the principles of the code.
2. Shows leadership
- Takes initiative and drives projects, campaigns, or collaborations.
- Can formulate and communicate a clear vision of the future of the profession.
- Provides structure: setting direction, prioritizing, monitoring progress.
- Encourages and involves the board in a positive and collegial atmosphere.
3. Uses network and visibility
You have a relevant network and know where opportunities lie to make the principles of the code visible. You seize public opportunities or empower others to do so.
4. Is available and plans realistically
- You can dedicate on average up to half a day per week to this role.
- You commit for at least three years.
- You are comfortable working in a volunteer organization: the board consists of peers who dedicate their time and energy voluntarily.
5. Fits the style of the board
- Positive, connecting, and motivating.
- Focus on collaboration within a team of volunteers.
- Public visibility is a means, not a goal. You share this naturally or hand it over to fellow board members and ambassadors.
What do we offer?
- A central role in a movement that professionalizes the recruitment profession.
- Being part of an experienced and collegial board.
- Working from a solid foundation: over 1,000 members, structural visibility, and a financially healthy base.
- Access to a powerful network of leading professionals.
- An opportunity to further develop your own vision and leadership, without hierarchy, in a content-driven environment.
What do we focus on?
- Motivation: What drives you? And how do you view the future of the recruitment profession?
- Availability: Can you structurally make time for a role as chairperson in a voluntary board?
- Integrity: Do you put the interests of the profession and the code first?
Finally
This role is unpaid. Like the other board members, you contribute on a voluntary basis. This requires intrinsic motivation, a sense of collaboration, and the ability to contribute with energy to something bigger than yourself.
