Advertising Advisory Committee – Vacancies

The independent Advertising Advisory Committee (AAC) is looking to recruit a Chair and three Members. The present role holders are nearing the end of their appointed terms.

The AAC provides independent advice to the Committees of Advertising Practice (CAP), authors of the UK Advertising Codes. The Codes are enforced by the Advertising Standards Authority. The AAC’s advice helps CAP to shape rules and guidance, ensuring advertisements do not mislead, harm or seriously offend their audience.

The AAC has six scheduled meetings a year. The Chair and Members advise on behalf of citizens and consumers and participate as individuals and not as representatives of organisations. They must be independent from the marketing business.

If you have the passion and drive to help us to shape the advertising rules and guidance, to ensure that advertisements do not mislead, harm or seriously offend their audience we’d love to hear from you.

We welcome applications from well qualified candidates from all sections of the community and we’re committed to being a diverse and inclusive organisation, both so we can represent everyone in the UK and so our committee members feel at home at work.
