RICS Scotland invites RICS members based in Scotland, who have the ability to think strategically in business planning terms, to serve on its board.

The ambit of the RICS Scotland Board is to direct the affairs of RICS Scotland under delegated authority from Governing Council.

The Scottish board is responsible to the RICS UK World Regional Board (WRB) for developing and ensuring successful implementation of a three-year rolling activity plan, which forms part of the UK WRB's business plan.

The activity plan will take account of local needs and market conditions. It will be set within the strategic framework established by Governing Council and the objectives set by the UK WRB.

There are three elected and two selected positions available on the Scottish board. A member can stand in the election and stand for selection. If elected, an individual's application for selection will be withdrawn.

Appointments will be for up to three years and the board will be expected to meet up to three times per annum with ad-hoc meetings at the chairman's discretion. The total commitment would be no more than six days per annum.

The closing date for applications is 27 April 2012.
