The UK Sustainability Disclosure Technical Advisory Committee ("the TAC") is seeking new members. The TAC provides advice to the Secretary of State (SoS) for the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) The TAC is seeking members with an interest in, and a professional familiarity with, sustainability reporting who have experience in preparing sustainability reports within real-economy sectors; using the information in sustainability reports to facilitate investment decisions; assessing costs of reporting as economists; or assuring sustainability information. The TAC would also be interested in hearing from candidates with expertise in social aspects of sustainability reporting, particularly human capital. About the UK Sustainability Disclosure Technical Advisory Committee The UK Government has committed to assess and endorse the International Sustainability Standards Board's (ISSB) IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards for use in the UK. This is an important initiative in facilitating global consistency of sustainability-related disclosures, providing investors with comparable and consistent information to inform decisions. Following the TAC's endorsement recommendations published in December 2024, the Government has recently consulted on exposure drafts of the UK versions of IFRS S1 and IFRS S2 - respectively called UK SRS S1 and UK SRS S2. After consideration of the consultation responses, the Government will publish final versions of UK SRS S1 and UK SRS S2. The TAC continues to support the Government in carrying out this work. The TAC also has responsibility for influencing the ISSB's technical work, including the way the ISSB develops its future standards and the ISSB's choices to amend or produce guidance on existing standards. Currently, the TAC is engaged with the ISSB's project to enhance the SASB Standards, and the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, both of which are sources of guidance referred to within the ISSB's Standards and the draft UK SRS. The Secretariat to the TAC is provided by the Financial Reporting Council (FRC). The Secretariat provide resources, draft agendas and papers for meetings, organise and minute meetings, undertake engagement with stakeholders (as requested by the TAC Chair), and lead the drafting of the TAC's endorsement recommendations or any other advice or consultation responses. More information about the TAC's remit can be found in its Terms of Reference . Composition of TAC members The TAC currently consists of 14 members, including its independent Chair, each of whom have specialisms in sustainability reporting. Two places on the TAC are reserved for representatives from the FRC and the UK Endorsement Boad to reflect the connectivity between UK-adopted international accounting standards, UK GAAP and UK SRS. The TAC is observed by representatives from the Bank of England, DBT, and the Financial Conduct Authority. TAC members act in the UK public good, independently of their organisations. However, where TAC members are part of other organisations, the views and the experience of those organisations may inform the TAC's debate. Members may be appointed for a term of one-to-three years (typically two or three), with the possibility of being renewed for one additional term. This ensures variation of tenure within the committee. Job Description TAC members, in the performance of their roles, are responsible for: Providing specialist knowledge, insight and technical analysis on IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards and associated sources of guidance. Voting on final technical endorsement recommendation(s) or advice to the SoS for DBT. Voting on final comment letters in response to ISSB consultations. Reviewing all relevant material before each TAC meeting. Contributing towards papers for discussion at the TAC's meetings where needed. Contributing towards the drafting of the TAC's endorsement recommendations, advice, or comment letters where needed. Being open and considerate to the views of other members and remaining respectful during interactions with others. Participating in the TAC's influencing work with the ISSB, as delegated by the Chair. Applicant specification The TAC is interested in hearing from applicants with the following experience: Preparers of sustainability reports: Current or recent senior-level experience of preparing sustainability reports for corporate businesses operating in the UK. Experience in real economy sectors where sustainability is critical to understanding the business and mitigating material risks. Candidates with solely financial services sector experience will not be preferred. Investors and other primary users of sustainability reports: Active senior-level investment decision-makers with experience of using the information provided in sustainability reports to facilitate investment decisions within UK markets.

The UK Sustainability Disclosure Technical Advisory Committee ("the TAC") is seeking new members. The TAC provides advice to the Secretary of State (SoS) for the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) The TAC is seeking members with an interest in, and a professional familiarity with, sustainability reporting who have experience in preparing sustainability reports within real-economy sectors; using the information in sustainability reports to facilitate investment decisions; assessing costs of reporting as economists; or assuring sustainability information. The TAC would also be interested in hearing from candidates with expertise in social aspects of sustainability reporting, particularly human capital. About the UK Sustainability Disclosure Technical Advisory Committee The UK Government has committed to assess and endorse the International Sustainability Standards Board's (ISSB) IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards for use in the UK. This is an important initiative in facilitating global consistency of sustainability-related disclosures, providing investors with comparable and consistent information to inform decisions. Following the TAC's endorsement recommendations published in December 2024, the Government has recently consulted on exposure drafts of the UK versions of IFRS S1 and IFRS S2 - respectively called UK SRS S1 and UK SRS S2. After consideration of the consultation responses, the Government will publish final versions of UK SRS S1 and UK SRS S2. The TAC continues to support the Government in carrying out this work. The TAC also has responsibility for influencing the ISSB's technical work, including the way the ISSB develops its future standards and the ISSB's choices to amend or produce guidance on existing standards. Currently, the TAC is engaged with the ISSB's project to enhance the SASB Standards, and the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, both of which are sources of guidance referred to within the ISSB's Standards and the draft UK SRS. The Secretariat to the TAC is provided by the Financial Reporting Council (FRC). The Secretariat provide resources, draft agendas and papers for meetings, organise and minute meetings, undertake engagement with stakeholders (as requested by the TAC Chair), and lead the drafting of the TAC's endorsement recommendations or any other advice or consultation responses. More information about the TAC's remit can be found in its Terms of Reference . Composition of TAC members The TAC currently consists of 14 members, including its independent Chair, each of whom have specialisms in sustainability reporting. Two places on the TAC are reserved for representatives from the FRC and the UK Endorsement Boad to reflect the connectivity between UK-adopted international accounting standards, UK GAAP and UK SRS. The TAC is observed by representatives from the Bank of England, DBT, and the Financial Conduct Authority. TAC members act in the UK public good, independently of their organisations. However, where TAC members are part of other organisations, the views and the experience of those organisations may inform the TAC's debate. Members may be appointed for a term of one-to-three years (typically two or three), with the possibility of being renewed for one additional term. This ensures variation of tenure within the committee. Job Description TAC members, in the performance of their roles, are responsible for: Providing specialist knowledge, insight and technical analysis on IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards and associated sources of guidance. Voting on final technical endorsement recommendation(s) or advice to the SoS for DBT. Voting on final comment letters in response to ISSB consultations. Reviewing all relevant material before each TAC meeting. Contributing towards papers for discussion at the TAC's meetings where needed. Contributing towards the drafting of the TAC's endorsement recommendations, advice, or comment letters where needed. Being open and considerate to the views of other members and remaining respectful during interactions with others. Participating in the TAC's influencing work with the ISSB, as delegated by the Chair. Applicant specification The TAC is interested in hearing from applicants with the following experience: Preparers of sustainability reports: Current or recent senior-level experience of preparing sustainability reports for corporate businesses operating in the UK. Experience in real economy sectors where sustainability is critical to understanding the business and mitigating material risks.
