IF YOU are – then Switchboard want to hear from you as they are currently looking for individuals to join the Switchboard Trustee Board?
They are looking to recruit to the following roles;
HR Trustee – they are seeking someone who can offer the relevant HR skills and experience to support the board with policies and practice related to employee relations, recruitment, retention, reward and recognition within a small charity. They require that a HR specialist can demonstrate commitment and integrity in advising the board on all employment matters in the organisation.
Trustees – They need skilled individuals to join the trustee board and help provide leadership.
You must be able to attend board and sub-committee meetings (around 9 meetings a year including the AGM plus an away day) keep yourself briefed on the issues and think strategically.
There are two vacancies and they need people immediately, they particularly need trustees with fundraising experience of the voluntary/non-profit sector and governance knowledge.
They are particularly keen to achieve a more diverse board of trustees and welcome applications from all sections of the varied LGBT+ communities, and positively welcome applications from people over 60, those who identify as BAME, those living with a disability and trans and/or non-binary individuals as these groups are currently under-represented on the Trustee board.
