Call for applicants: join our Technical Committee
The ISEAL Technical Committee provides technical oversight to the development and maintenance of our credibility tools, in particular the ISEAL Credibility Principles and the ISEAL Code of Good Practice for Sustainability Systems.
The Technical Committee (the Committee) represents a balance of stakeholder perspectives and provides strategic and technical insight to the ISEAL Secretariat and Board. We are now seeking applicants representing businesses, producers, governments, NGOs, and independent experts to join the Committee.
Understanding sustainability systems
The Committee brings together representatives from ISEAL Community Members and external stakeholders who have a strong overall understanding of sustainability standards, similar systems, and the external landscape within which they operate.
The Committee comprises nine individuals, a third of whom are staff at an ISEAL Community Member organisation.
The remaining two-thirds are experts from non-Community Member sustainability systems, organisations that engage with sustainability systems, or that work independently.
New recruitment
We are recruiting for several new members who support our mission and values, and have experience with our credibility tools.
We are also looking for a good understanding of the external environment and trends that affect sustainability systems, and individuals who will contribute to the Committee’s overall representation of global stakeholders.
Balanced representation
To ensure balanced stakeholder representation and geographic diversity, we are particularly interested in applicants operating in the global south or emerging economies.
We are also seeking candidates who are familiar with financial trends, emerging economies, technology and artificial intelligence.
More information on the role and on the responsibilities of the Committee can be found in the terms of reference.
Please submit your CV and completed application form by 11 August 2025. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis.
Please note that we are not accepting applications from ISEAL Community Members or other sustainability systems as these spots on the Committee are currently filled.
Nominations and any questions about the Technical Committee should be sent to eleanor@isealalliance.org.
