Chair, Coal Authority
The Coal Authority An exciting opportunity to lead our board has just been advertised, which may be of interest to you or your networks. This is a key strategic role at an exciting time for us a... s we work to support government priorities across the UK around the green recovery. Our new chair will play a pivotal role in making strategic projects – such as our work on mine energy – a reality.

As part of our commitment to be a great place to work, we’re looking for someone who’s committed to inclusive leadership of our board – and who’ll help us drive forward our EDI agenda. We’re committed to being a more actively anti-racist organisation and are keen for our leadership to be representative of that. If you, or someone you know, would like to help us make a better future for people and the environment in mining areas please: • see details of the role on the Cabinet Office website here – where you can also sign-up for details of an open webinar • view a video from our current Chair talking about the role here • get in touch with me for a chat in confidence or to find out more We really welcome applicants from a range of backgrounds and experiences, who can help us deliver our vision for the future.
