    Apply Now for ICANN Leadership Positions: Deadline is 20 March 2016

17 December 2015

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers' (ICANN)
Nominating Committee (NomCom) invites interested individuals to submit
applications and/or to recommend candidates for ICANN's key leadership
positions. Applications are invited for the following positions:

  * Three members of the ICANN Board of Directors
  * Two At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) representatives (one each
    from the Europe and North America regions)
  * One member of the Council of the Generic Names Supporting
    Organization (GNSO)
  * One member of the Council of the Country-Code Names Supporting
    Organization (ccNSO)

Individuals selected by the NomCom will have a unique opportunity to
work with accomplished colleagues from around the globe and help shape
the Internet's technical coordination and policy development.

Those selected will also gain valuable insights and experience from
working across boundaries of knowledge, responsibility, culture and
geography. They will be making a valuable public service contribution
towards the functioning and evolution of this essential global resource.
Guided by the broad public interest, those selected will work to fulfill
ICANN's mission to coordinate the global Internet's systems of unique
identifiers, and in particular to ensure its stable and secure operation.

Current NomCom-selected Board members include: Cherine Chalaby
<https://www.icann.org/profiles/cherine-chalaby>, Steve Crocker
<https://www.icann.org/profiles/steve-crocker>, Asha Hemrajani
<https://www.icann.org/profiles/asha-hemrajani>, Rafael Lito Ibarra

Please submit applications for the positions described above through the
on-line application request form at (http://nomcom.icann.org/apply) or

For more information, please visit the 2016 NomCom
<https://www.icann.org/nomcom2016> website. If you have any questions or
comments, please email: nomcom2016 at icann.org <mailto:nomcom2016 at icann.org>.

Candidate recommendations are encouraged and can be submitted through an
on-line form at http://nomcom.icann.org/suggest.

All applications are confidential and should be received by 20 March
2016 (23:59 UTC) for full consideration. Selections will be announced in
August or September 2016. Successful candidates will take up their
positions following ICANN's Annual Meeting in October 2016.

Fluency in English is a requirement for all positions.

These positions require regular participation in teleconferences and may
involve significant international travel, including travel to ICANN's
three annual Public Meetings. Recent ICANN Public Meetings were held in
Singapore, Buenos Aires and Dublin. Meetings during 2016 will be held in
Marrakech (5 – 10 March 2016), Panama City and San Juan.

Reasonable direct expenses incurred in the course of service will be
reimbursed.

Each Board Member has the option to receive compensation in accordance
with the resolution passed by the Board on 30 July 2014, but is not
required to do so. (/See/
https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2014-07-30-en#2.b.)


      Background:

The NomCom is an independent committee tasked with selecting eight
members of the Board of Directors and other key positions within ICANN's
structure.

It is designed to function independently from the ICANN Board,
Supporting Organizations, and Advisory Committees. NomCom members act
only on behalf of the interests of the global Internet community and
within the scope of the ICANN mission and responsibilities assigned to
it by the ICANN Bylaws.

NomCom members contribute understanding of the broad interests of the
Internet community as a whole, and knowledge and experience of specific
Internet constituencies who have appointed them.

The challenge for the NomCom is to integrate these perspectives and
derive consensus in its selections. Although appointed by Supporting
Organizations and other ICANN bodies, individual NomCom members are not
accountable to their appointing bodies.

NomCom members are accountable for adherence to the ICANN Bylaws and for
compliance with the rules and procedures established by the NomCom.
