Exeter City Council is the Port Authority for the Exe Estuary
Exeter Harbour Board is looking for two new members to join the committee.
Exeter City Council is the Port Authority for the Exe Estuary, some non-tidal sections of the River Exe and the Exeter Ship Canal.
The Harbour Board sits within the council’s existing committee structure. The board consists of six members of Exeter City Council and six external representatives who are appointed for a period of three years.
The Harbour Board maintains strategic oversight and direction of all aspects of the harbour operation and meets at least every three months.
The following meeting dates have been identified:
The Board’s duties include monitoring compliance with the Port Marine Safety Code, consulting harbour users and other stakeholders and being involved in the preparation for an application for a Harbour Revision Order.
Board members use their skills and experience for the long-term benefit of the Port and must be committed to working in its best interests rather than for any particular stakeholder group.
Harbour Board membership is voluntary and undertaken on an expenses-only basis.
External applicants should, ideally, be familiar with the workings of a harbour and its operational environment.
It is highly desirable, but not essential, that they either have a Master Mariner qualification (or equivalent) or qualifications in administration and/or financial management.
They should also have a broad experience in two or more of the following fields:
Interested applicants with the relevant background should request an application form from pierre.doutreligne@exeter.gov.uk. The application submission deadline is 5pm on Friday 31 May.
For an informal chat about the role please contact Grahame Forshaw, Harbour Master, and Exeter Port Authority on 07864 958658 or email grahame.forshaw@exeter.gov.uk
