TNDC Board of Directors – Invitation for Expressions of Interest Submission Deadline Extended

Tahltan Nation Development Corporation (TNDC) is reissuing its call for invitations for Expressions of Interest (EOI) from Tahltan members who wish to be considered for appointment to the TNDC Board of Directors. Due to the wildfire situation occurring within Tahltan Territory, the submission deadline has been extended by two weeks, to Friday, August 31, 2018.

The TNDC Board is comprised of nine (9) directors which includes the Chair, Vice-chair and seven (7) Board Members. In 2018, the terms of the Chair and five (5) Board members will expire. While these individuals may seek a further term on the Board, the Shareholders of TNDC will also consider applications to appoint new or returning Board members.

The Shareholders have asked TNDC to coordinate the gathering of Expressions of Interest for the TNDC Board. The Shareholders intend to hold a Shareholders Meeting before September 2018 to appoint the Board positions which will become vacant.

The following summarizes the appointment procedure and some of the factors that will be considered:

• Please submit your EOI by 4:00 pm on Friday, August 31, 2018. Only those who submit an EOI will be considered.
• The shareholders make the final decision on TNDC Board appointments.
• All TNDC Board members are of Tahltan ancestry.
• TNDC Board members generally do not include individuals who are elected or appointed to a Tahltan political body.
• Directors serve a two-year term and may be reappointed for additional terms at the discretion of the Shareholders.
• The TNDC Board requires a specific skills mix, which includes professional level corporate law, financial management, telecommunications, project management (heavy construction, industry, infrastructure, residential), mining & exploration, industrial health & safety, forestry, reclamation & environment, road construction & maintenance. Other skills and experience will be considered.
