The AAC helps the BBC's executive committee manage risks to the BBC arising from involvement in charitable appeals.

The position is unpaid but reasonable expenses will be met. We ask people to commit to a term of 3 years, with another 3 year extension possible by mutual agreement. There are 4 full AAC meetings a year, each one lasting 3 hours. These are held in London with a Zoom facility for remote attendance. Committee members are expected to read relevant papers beforehand.

We have a working environment where we value and respect every individual's unique contribution, enabling all of our employees to thrive and achieve their full potential. We want to attract the broadest range of talented people to be part of the BBC - whether that's to contribute to our programming or our wide range of non-production roles.
