Call for members: IFRS Taxonomy Consultative Group

IFRS Taxonomy Consultative Group seeks new members to join in 2026

The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) are seeking candidates to join the IFRS Taxonomy Consultative Group (ITCG) from 1 August 2026.

Who we are

The ITCG is an expert consultative group that advises both the IASB and the ISSB on their digital taxonomies and related activities, such as promoting consistent adoption and implementation of the IFRS digital taxonomies.

ITCG members play an important role in reviewing IFRS Taxonomy publications and files as part of the IFRS Foundation’s due process. Their review helps to ensure the IFRS digital taxonomies are of high quality and facilitate the digital consumption of financial statements and sustainability-related financial disclosures.

Ideal candidates

ITCG members have diverse geographical and functional backgrounds to provide a range of perspectives. Based on the ITCG’s current composition, we particularly welcome applications from candidates meeting some or all of these criteria:

• experience using eXtensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) or other computer-readable, structured data formats in their investment decision-making or to support decisions made by investors;

• experience using artificial intelligence or other emerging technology to facilitate digital financial reporting;

• experience producing, reviewing or assuring financial reports in a computer-readable, structured data format (for example, in XBRL or inline XBRL format);

• experience working in or with jurisdictions that require or are considering the introduction of digital financial reporting requirements; and

• familiarity with IFRS Standards and IFRS digital taxonomies.

Member benefits

As an ITCG member you will have the opportunity to:

• contribute to the development of the IFRS digital taxonomies in accordance with the IFRS Foundation’s due process;

• gain up-to-date knowledge of important developments in digital financial reporting;

• interact with IASB and ISSB members and technical staff; and

• build networks with other stakeholders in the digital reporting ecosystem.

Meetings

The ITCG typically meets two to four times a year—including one in-person meeting, which takes place at the IFRS Foundation’s office in London, UK. The meetings of the ITCG are open to the public.

Terms of appointment

Successful candidates will be appointed for a term of one, two or three years. Members are eligible for successive reappointments but cannot serve for more than six years.

In line with IFRS Foundation policy, ITCG members will not receive pay or reimbursement for travel costs or other expenses.

Apply

Please apply below with your CV/Resume and cover letter. Any personal data supplied to the IFRS Foundation will be used only for ITCG candidate selection.

Applications are due by 27 March 2026.

The IFRS Foundation has the discretion to review applications received after the specified date.
