Board Members

Membership of the ESB includes main influencers and decision-makers at a Senior Executive and Corporate Director level.

Board members are required to bring a perspective from their sector to the Skills and Employability Debate. They commit themselves to developing a shared understanding of the challenges facing Nottinghamshire and the appropriate priorities for action.

The Board meets quarterly and is chaired by an independent member. An executive sub-group meets between Board meetings to carry forward the actions emanating from Board meetings and to forward plan future Board matters as instructed.
