Tees Valley Business Board Recruitment 2026

Tees Valley Business Board plays a vital role in ensuring the region’s business community have a voice in TVCA’s strategic decision-making.

Members advise on, establish and help lead projects, schemes and programmes that feed into the work of the Tees Valley Mayor, Combined Authority and Local Authorities and deliver real change to our local economy, with a continuing focus on Inward Investment, Business Growth and Skills.

We are now seeking high-calibre business leaders who can bring insight, experience and integrity to the Business Board’s work. They will help TVCA to ensure business growth and that local people can access high-quality jobs so all communities benefit from the region’s economic success.

This is an unpaid, voluntary role, but an unparalleled opportunity to shape Tees Valley’s business landscape for years to come. Business Board meets quarterly, with the Chair feeding back directly to TVCA Cabinet as a non-voting member.
