If you’re good with numbers, the Halton District School Board is hoping you’ll join their audit committee.
The Board is seeking a community member from Milton, Oakville, Burlington or Halton Hills with financial expertise and business knowledge to serve on its audit committee for a three-year term beginning April 1.
The ideal candidate will embrace an equitable, multicultural and inclusive environment and is willing to dedicate their time to make a lasting contribution to the Board.
The audit committee is comprised of three trustees and two independent members drawn from the community at large. They meet at least three times a year, plus other meetings as required.
Meetings take place at the J.W. Singleton Education Centre beginning at 2 p.m., and selected meetings may also take place in a virtual format.
The primary role of the audit committee is to assist the board of trustees in fulfilling duties related to governance and oversight.
