Join the Board

Skills & Experience Sought for Board in 2026 

We continue our efforts to increase the diversity of HUB Cycling’s Board to better reflect the communities we seek to serve. We are looking for passionate individuals who are committed to cycling and sustainable transportation, and who can bring diverse perspectives and experiences to our board. 
 

This year, we are especially seeking:

• geographic representation beyond the Lower Mainland 
   
• individuals with experience in adaptive cycling (e.g. any form of cycling adapted for people with disabilities) 
   
• those who identify themselves as Indigenous, racialized, Black, a person of colour or visible minority 
   
• those facing social, physical, mental, cultural and/or financial barriers to cycling

Time Commitment

Board Directors are expected to spend 15 hours minimum per month on HUB Cycling work, including:

• preparation for and attending Board meetings
• corresponding by email and voting in electronic motions
• fulfilling Action Items from Board meetings
• participating in one Board committee (Regional Advisory Committee, Board Development Committee, and Operations Committee)

Board meetings are held on the second Wednesday of each month from 6:30pm to 8:30pm. Typically we alternate monthly between virtual and in-person meetings which are held at the HUB office at 312 Main Street, Vancouver. Virtual attendance option is always available. 

Roles and Responsibilities of the Board

The HUB Board steers the organization towards a sustainable future by adopting sound, ethical, and legal governance and financial management policies, as well as by making sure the organization has adequate resources to advance its mission. The activities of the board can be roughly broken into ten roles:

1. Determine the organization’s mission and purpose
2. Support the Executive Director and assess their performance
3. Provide proper financial oversight
4. Ensure adequate resources
5. Ensure legal and ethical integrity and maintain accountability
6. Ensure effective organizational planning
7. Recruit and orient new Board members.
8. Assess Board performance
9. Enhance the organization’s public standing
10. Monitor the organization’s programs and services

Recommended Candidates

Based on review of the 2026 Board composition matrix data and considering HUB’s strategic plan, we’re looking for those who have experience on the HUB Cycling’s Board of Directors as that is essential for board continuity and good governance especially given current directors whose terms are expiring.

This year, we are especially seeking:

• geographic representation beyond the Lower Mainland 
• individuals with experience in adaptive cycling (e.g. any form of cycling adapted for people with disabilities) 
• those who identify themselves as Indigenous, racialized, Black, a person of colour or visible minority
• those facing social, physical, mental, cultural and/or financial barriers to cycling
   

In 2025, the Board Development Committee (BDC) created a Board Composition Matrix to identify gaps among the current Board directors. Using this matrix, the Board is targeting their recruitment efforts to fill these gaps among candidates from across British Columbia, with an emphasis on areas outside Metro Vancouver.

The BDC will review all applicants against these criteria and recommend those candidates who best meet the identified needs. Although a select number of candidates will be recommended, HUB members will ultimately vote for those they believe will best meet the organization's needs.
