Who qualifies for this seat?
A licensed property freight broker representative, such as a brokerage owner or operations, carrier-onboarding, compliance or risk leader.
Your application and résumé should explain the experience you bring to this perspective.
Relevant work and experience
- Brokerage operations and the broker’s role in arranging transportation.
- Carrier onboarding, authority and insurance documentation, and dispatch identity checks.
- Recognizing impersonation, unauthorized rebrokering and freight-fraud warning signs.
What would I do in this seat?
- Review broker-facing standards for selecting and confirming the actual transporting carrier.
- Assess documentation and escalation practices when identity or qualification concerns arise.
- Recommend workable controls for carrier onboarding and load-level decisions.
- Review assigned brokerage-related evidence using published criteria and documented reasons.
What every Council member commits to
- Review and vote: prepare for meetings, review assigned standards and evidence, and record informed votes on appointments and other Council matters.
- Act independently: disclose conflicts, recuse when needed, protect confidential information and apply published requirements fairly.
- Time: plan for 2–4 hours per month on average, including preparation and votes. Meetings are at least quarterly, ordinarily 60–90 minutes. Additional assignments are discussed first.
- Service: unpaid, normally a three-year seat term. Initial and replacement terms may be shorter. This is a program advisory and review role, not a corporate director or officer appointment.
What do I need to apply?
- Your contact details and a résumé or CV in PDF format, up to 5 MB.
- A short explanation of your relevant work, responsibilities and why you want to serve.
- A short biography of at least 30 characters and a JPEG headshot, up to 5 MB, submitted with your application.
- Disclosure of relevant business relationships, financial interests and pending matters.
- Your signed individual Council pledge and service acknowledgments.
Pledge and identity verification are required
You do not need an existing account or prior Pledge Signatory or Recognized Participant approval to apply. Every Council applicant must sign the individual Dalilah Standard pledge.
After you apply, you must complete identity verification through a separate secure process, normally including government ID and facial recognition through FreightValidate/AU10TIX. A documented lawful equivalent may be used where applicable under the Charter.
Your qualifications, background and conflict disclosures are reviewed before appointment, which also requires pledge approval and a recorded Council approval vote. You can apply first, but you cannot be appointed until the required checks are complete.
Do not upload government ID to this application form. Follow the separate secure verification instructions sent after submission.
Your bio and headshot are reviewed with your application before voting. They are published only after final appointment and permission to publish.
Seat duties above are examples of your contribution within the Charter’s scope. Committee leadership and extra assignments require separate discussion and Council authorization where applicable. Appointment does not grant recognition to your business or authorize endorsements.
