This year's open seats are: Vice Chair, Secretary/Treasurer, Associate, five (5) principal seats, and the BAE seat.

We are an inclusive organization that celebrates perspectives from all races and ethnicities, genders and identities, political affiliations, educational backgrounds, or socioeconomic status.

Interested individuals who meet the criteria must submit the following for the Nominating Committee’s consideration:

  1. A completed online application to indicate your interest. The following supporting materials can be submitted online with your application. All letters should be addressed to the BOMA International Nominating Committee.

  2. A cover letter stating you are a member in good standing and your intent to step forward as a candidate. Be sure to include the seat for which you are applying – officer position descriptions can be found here, and Executive Committee member descriptions can be found here.

    The letter should highlight your reasons for stepping forward as a candidate, the qualities, skills and experience that make you an ideal candidate for the position you seek and how you see yourself benefiting from the experience.

  3. A professional resume detailing your BOMA-related activities, along with your local, regional, and international participation. We recommend dividing your experience into two sections on your resume: your work experience and your BOMA experience.

  4. A letter of support from your employer or partner on company letterhead, supporting your candidacy and stating they understand the time commitment for the position. Please provide your employer a copy of the position description.

    a. If you are the employer, your letter of intent will suffice.
