Scottish ministers are looking to fill three non-executive director positions on the Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE) board, with the new appointees expected to take up their roles in the summer.
The development agency operates throughout a region that covers more than half of the Scottish land mass, including all 94 inhabited islands, and is home to around 470,000 people.
With around 300 staff based across the region, HIE's board has corporate responsibility for strong governance, ensuring it meets objectives set by the government and uses its resources efficiently and effectively.
