New Zealand Registered Architects Board: Chair

On behalf of the Minister for Building and Construction, the Ministry is seeking candidates who wish to be considered for appointment as the Chair of the Board.

About the Board

The New Zealand Registered Architects Board (the Board) is a body corporate, established under section 47 of the Registered Architects Act 2005 (the Act), to carry out three main regulatory functions: registration, continued registration (i.e. ensuring registered architects maintain competence and professionalism in their career) and complaints and discipline.
The Registered Architects Act 2005 (the Act) provides a registration framework and protects the title of `registered architect' for those who meet the minimum standards to be registered. Registered architects are bound by a code of ethics and are accountable for their work through a complaints and disciplinary process, which is administered by the NZRAB.

Time commitment and remuneration

The typical time commitment for Board members is around 8 - 12 days per year, including board meetings, one to two strategic planning days, committee and panel meetings, some telephone conferences, ad hoc meetings, and (when required) disciplinary hearings. Preparation time is paid on top of attendance or participation.
The Chair is expected to undertake more hours in addition to a Board member. These additional hours vary based off need and workload.
The Chair receives an annual fee of $30,030, plus reasonable travel and accommodation expenses.

Specific skills required

The Minister is recruiting for a Chair of the New Zealand Registered Architects Board (the Board). To be successful in this role, applicants will have:

proven governance experience as the Chair of a board
experience in the duties and responsibilities associated with regulatory or disciplinary bodies, and an ability to bring an objective and fair approach to disciplinary hearings
proven skills in leadership including the ability to develop and implement strategy
strong stakeholder relationship management skills, and the ability to gain the trust and confidence of the architecture profession.

Additional information

Before a person is appointed as a member of the Board, they must disclose the nature and extent (including monetary value, if quantifiable) of all interests that the person has at that time, or is likely to have, in matters relating to the Board.
As part of the appointments process, candidates are required to disclose any interests that they may have. The information that is disclosed is used to assess whether a candidate would be able to contribute effectively to the entity's affairs and, where conflicts are identified, to ensure that these can be managed appropriately.
Applications close Sunday 8 December, 2024, at midnight.
