About the Opportunity The Fit to Drive Foundation is seeking expressions of interest from people interested in joining our volunteer Board. We expect to have Board Member opportunities available ahead of our October 2026 Annual General Meeting, although the final number of vacancies is still being confirmed. We are therefore inviting expressions of interest from people with a broad range of skills, experience and perspectives who are interested in contributing to the future of the Foundation.

We are open to all relevant skill sets and backgrounds, and are particularly keen to hear from people with experience in:

financial management, accounting or audit legal, compliance or risk governance, board practice or not-for-profit leadership marketing, communications or stakeholder engagement fundraising, partnerships or sponsorship youth engagement, education, training or community programs road safety, health promotion or behaviour change Previous Board experience is welcome, but not essential. More important is a genuine commitment to the Foundation’s purpose and a willingness to actively contribute to the work of the Board and its subcommittees.
