Dear all,
Today Wikimedia UK placed an advertisement for a Chief Executive. You can
see the advert here:
http://bit.ly/mU1USs
As you can see from the advert we are looking for a top-calibre individual
who will play a key role in the future growth and development of a rapidly
expanding organisation.
We are very pleased that we've reached this point. Getting to this stage has
not been easy - you will probably be aware that this post has been talked
about for getting on for a year. Managing the recruitment process has, and
will continue, to take up a significant amount of time for the Board
(particularly Roger and Andrew), even aided by the advice of professional HR
consultants. However I hope you will agree that getting the right person
filling this role is of vital importance for the future.
We've invited community input into our hiring strategy at several stages,
including at the AGM. We are still committed to involving the community in
this and if you have views on the Chief Executive's role or the further
development of our staff structure please do let us know either on or off
list.
Also, if you know anyone who might be interested, please do point them
towards the advert!
Chris
WMUK Board
