This is an important and compelling time to join us, and we are now looking to make three key appointments to our Board that will add expertise in specific areas. This includes two Non-Executive Director appointments. In one, we are keen to attract candidates with a strong track record in senior, strategic financial management (including audit) who bring the governance knowledge and experience to Chair our Finance or Audit Committee and candidates who can offer appropriate support and challenge from a People strategy perspective, ensuring we cultivate an environment where employees feel valued and empowered to contribute effectively. For this role, your background may have been gained as a community leader involved in working alongside volunteers and community members or as a more formal HR / People Director where enabling participation and voice within your organisation has been your role. In addition, we are keen to appoint an Associate Non-Executive Director with expertise in developing digital services and digital transformation who will deepen our insight in this area at Board level as we continue to explore how technology can support our work and extend our reach and impact.
