Member - Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission

Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission

Dublin

The Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission (GSOC) is an independent agency set up in 2007, whose function it is to deal with matters involving possible misconduct by members of the Garda Síochána, in an efficient, effective and fair manner. It was established (under the Garda Síochána Act 2005) for the purpose of ensuring openness, transparency and accountability in the process by which complaints against the Garda Síochána are investigated. The three Members of the Commission are jointly responsible for managing a body that has an important role in maintaining public confidence in the Garda Síochána. Applications are now being sought to fill a vacancy on the Commission as a Member. The person appointed will: • have a proven record of achievement at a senior level in the private or public sector, ideally with an international background in policing, that demonstrates the vision, leadership, governance, oversight and management skills necessary for the role; • have sound judgement and an ability to guide the resolution of difficult and complex issues in a pressurised environment; • be recognised either publicly or within their own professional area as an individual of proven integrity and independence.
