Become a nima volunteer

Did you know that most of nima’s activities are undertaken on a purely voluntary basis?

While a small number of individuals are remunerated for part-time management of core administration, finance, operational and communication tasks, around 90% of nima’s day-to-day management is delivered by volunteers. Some are supported by their employers – nima supporters – in committing their time and sharing their expertise; others volunteer in their spare time or, if self-employed, take time out of their working days to help keep nima and bSUKI going. Ranging from subject matter experts to people wanting to learn about and contribute to better information and data management practices, volunteers are key to our continued existence and future growth.

Could you volunteer to help nima’s core team?

Nima’s chair and the vice chair team consult with our members and volunteers in developing the organisation’s overall strategy, but practical delivery of that strategy is dependent upon individuals’ voluntary commitment of time and expertise. Across all key areas of nima and buildingSMART activities – including membership and project management, communication and events, education and upskilling, communities and stakeholder engagement, standards and guidance – we would welcome further volunteer support.
