IoD Jersey Committee & Board members

The Corporate Governance Sub-Committee’s purpose is to maintain and safeguard the standards and values of the IoD. The sub-committee ensures these values are upheld by consistently adhering to policies and procedures that enable it to meet its legal and regulatory obligations.

The membership sub-committee is responsible for explaining the benefits of becoming a member of IoD Jersey and is supported by Branch Officer, Zoe Wauton with any new and renewal applications.

The Professional Development Sub-Committee aims to support the development of senior management from every sector within Jersey through the promotion of the IoD suite of professional development courses, including the Certificate and Diploma Programme. We can offer advice and support to those eligible directors seeking Chartered Director status and provide a link with IoD Pall Mall on their future professional development plans.

The Students Sub-Committee is responsible for the development, review and monitoring of programmes and projects promoting the aims and objectives of the IoD for those in full time education. The sub-committee manages the Future Leader’s Scheme, which gives Sixth Form students the opportunity to spend one week ‘shadowing’ a director or senior manager; usually during the holiday breaks. The scheme is sponsored by KPMG.

IoD Jersey’s Events Sub-Committee looks to create informative and interesting events which showcase the very best the Island has to offer and provide members with access to insights from industry leaders. Our aim is to raise the profile of the IoD and its members through engaging speakers, innovative content and contemporary delivery.

The Digital Sub-Committee is responsible for ensuring technology and technical skills are at the forefront of the local business agenda. One of the committee’s key roles is to place digital learnings across the IoD Director Competency Framework, to instill best practice in all areas of competency. The Framework, the only framework of this kind for directors, is designed to promote and champion the highest standards of professional competence.

IoD Jersey’s Diversity Sub-Committee aims to equip IoD Jersey members and the wider island leadership community with the knowledge, skills and desire to attract and retain the widest possible pool of human talent. It seeks to encourage an active culture of diversity and inclusion through: the creation and distribution of engaging diversity collateral; the facilitation of diversity-focused events; and the undertaking of diversity driven research projects.

The Industry Sub-Committee aims to be an inclusive and energetic voice for the championing of industry in Jersey for the benefit of the whole community. The committee pools the expertise of its members and, where appropriate, provides relevant data, information and membership opinion to inform debates, policy and decisions relating to Industry.

IoD Jersey’s Environment Sub-Committee provides information and guidance to IoD members and their businesses on a broad range of environmental topics. The-sub committee’s aim is to improve understanding amongst business leaders, enhance sustainability and decrease negative environmental impact across the Island.

The purpose of the Public Relations Sub-Committee is to gather and provide information to our members and the public. We communicate on industry and IoD events, handle all media liaison, increase awareness of the IoD, share business tool-kits and updates with our membership, oversee the website and communications and monitor all social media.

IoD Jersey’s Workplace Wellbeing Sub-Committee sets out to highlight how staff wellbeing is an increasingly relevant and necessary consideration in the modern workplace.

Wellbeing is about personal happiness in the workplace and is a hugely significant aspect of people’s work and careers.
