The Global Electronics Council® (GEC), an independent international nonprofit dedicated to expanding the market for sustainable electronic products and technologies, has announced that it is inviting qualified professionals to submit expressions of interest for positions on its Board of Directors.
The organization is looking for committed leaders who can contribute a broad range of expertise, viewpoints, and independent perspectives to GEC’s governance and future strategy. Joining the GEC Board provides an opportunity for experienced professionals to play a strategic role in an organization focused on accelerating the adoption of more sustainable electronics. Details about the position and expectations for Directors are available in the newly released GEC Board of Directors Prospective Director Information Guide.
The GEC Board plays an important role in directing the organization’s efforts across areas including sustainability, technology, procurement, criteria development, and market growth. Directors are expected to support GEC’s mission while making independent decisions in the organization’s best interests. The Board will also help strengthen GEC’s ongoing influence through EPEAT®, its global Type I ecolabel, which helps institutional buyers reduce environmental and social impacts through responsible electronics purchasing.
GEC encourages qualified professionals from different industries, disciplines, and countries to put themselves forward. The organization is particularly interested in candidates with backgrounds in areas such as finance, procurement, sustainability, circular economy practices, supply chain management, electronics, international market development, stakeholder relations, public policy, conformity assessment, nonprofit governance, academia, and other disciplines relevant to GEC’s activities.
Board membership offers seasoned experts the opportunity to apply their knowledge toward a mission with global reach while contributing at the strategic, governance, and organizational levels. Newly appointed Directors generally begin their service through participation on a standing committee, with the potential to progress into leadership positions such as Committee Chair or Board Officer.
GEC is seeking individuals who have relevant experience and a strong commitment to supporting the organization’s continued development and success. Interested candidates are required to complete the online Expression of Interest form and submit an up-to-date resume or CV. Applicants may also include a cover letter if they wish.
Expressions of interest will remain open until September 23, 2026.
