Our Board of Trustees are responsible at a governance level for the general control and management of the administration of the Charity. Trustees are legally responsible for the organisation and also ensure we have a clear strategy linked to our vision.
This year we are looking for three Trustees to join our board, and have identified the following three skills areas of interest to us at this time:
HR experience
Interested applicants should have recent or on-going experience in Human Resources
at Executive level. You’ll have experience of leading HR strategy, ensuring legal
compliance, delivering learning and development strategy, pay and reward
frameworks and fostering a positive working culture within a commercial
or not for profit organisation. The individual will join our People, Organisation
and Development committee.
Policy, Influencing & Public Affairs experience
Interested applicants will have worked, or be working in policy, influencing and/or
public affairs with demonstrable experience of shaping healthcare policy, leading
strategic policy development and influencing government decision-making at a
high level. We would also welcome applicants with experience in managing media
partnerships and delivering high profile media campaigns at a senior level.
Fundraising strategy and implementation experience
Interested applicants should have worked at least at Fundraising Director level or have
undertaken this role prior to moving to a broader role. We are particularly interested
in applicants who have an understanding of a broad range of income generation, in
a medium sized charity with multi million pound budgets, with experience of leading
supporter engagement strategies and successfully increasing reach.
