Apply Now for Public Technical Identifiers (PTI) Director Positions:
Deadline Is 21 March 2017

7 February 2017

The ICANN Nominating Committee (NomCom) invites interested individuals
to submit applications and/or recommend candidates for key positions
on PTI's Board of Directors. Selected individuals will have a unique
opportunity to work with accomplished colleagues from around the globe
to help shape the Internet's technical coordination and policy
development.

We are inviting applications and recommendations for:

  *   Two members of the PTI Board of Directors

The two persons selected by the NomCom will serve alongside three PTI
Board members selected by ICANN.

Guided by the broad public interest, those selected will work to
fulfill ICANN's mission to coordinate the global Internet's systems of
unique identifiers, and in particular, to ensure its stable and secure
operation. They will gain valuable insights and experience from
working across boundaries of knowledge, responsibility, culture and
geography. They will make a valuable public service contribution
toward the functioning and evolution of this essential global
resource.

Qualifications

Fluency in English is a requirement for all positions.

NomCom selectees are expected to be knowledgeable about the
environment in which ICANN and PTI operate and the technical functions
for which ICANN and PTI are responsible.

The persons selected by NomCom as PTI Directors must not be employed
by ICANN or PTI.

For information on additional qualifications, skills and time
commitments for these positions, visit the NomCom

Compensation

Selected PTI Directors will serve without compensation, but can
receive reimbursement for travel expenses, where authorized.

Background

The NomCom operates independently from the ICANN Board, the PTI Board,
and ICANN's Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees. The
functional and geographic diversity and independence of NomCom members
enables and encourages it to select persons who are not beholden to
any particular interests and are capable of representing the broader
view of the Internet community.

NomCom members act only on behalf of the interests of the global
Internet community and within the scope of the ICANN mission and the
responsibilities assigned to NomCom by the ICANN Bylaws and PTI
Bylaws.

The NomCom seeks widespread participation, through submission of
suggestions for candidates and Statements of Interest, to find the
talent and experience needed for these roles. This process informs the
NomCom's decisions and builds the community's confidence and respect
for those whom the NomCom selects.
