<p>This role has been vacant since the Board was formed in 2017. It was not possible
to make an appointment to the board at that time due to the dissolution of the Northern
Ireland Executive. A process to appoint a Northern Ireland Member was run in 2021,
but Ministers decided to restart the process due to an insufficiently diverse and
broad longlist.</p><p>The executive search company Odgers Berndtson was hired to support
a new campaign, which is currently underway and closed to applications on 6 June 2022.
An appointment will be made in due course, in line with the Code of Governance for
Public Appointments and the BBC Royal Charter.</p><p> </p>
