ICB is calling for applications from Associate Members, full Members, and Fellows who wish to stand on the ICB Advisory Council. 

The Advisory Council is an ICB consultative group made up of ICB members and was established in 2010 to represent the views and opinions of members and the bookkeeping profession as a whole.

Election Cycle

After applications have been received, the candidates will be announced in the May newsletter and the new members of the council will be decided by vote by ICB members.

Further Information

The purpose of the council is to provide informed advice and independent support to the ICB Executive and to identify and clarify standards.

Members of the Advisory Council are voted in from the ICB membership and are expected to apply the experience and judgement from their individual backgrounds to the questions considered by the Advisory Council and in doing so actively contribute to improving the quality and integrity of ICB.

Advisory Council meetings provide a forum for open debate, authoritative questioning and active involvement in ICB and the service it offers to members.

TIME COMMITMENT

Advisory Council members are expected to attend two full day meetings each year and will need to be able to deal in a timely manner with the reading of substantial Advisory Council documents.

Members will be expected to join working groups to formulate reports and recommendations to the council.

Members of the council will need to fulfill the requirements of the Advisory Council Terms of Reference.
