Groundwater Relief is looking to recruit people, from all professional backgrounds, who have, or have not, had Trustee experience before.
As part of our growth strategy the Board are looking to expand and bring in new skills, and to replace current trustees who are due to retire in just over a year’s time. The Board is seeking to attract people who can bring a new perspective, fresh ideas and challenge the status quo. You may have experience of being a Trustee, or those who are looking to join a board for the first time (we will actively support you to develop your strategic thinking and understanding of Governance).
Groundwater experience/knowledge is not required, but a willingness to devote the necessary time and effort, the ability to work effectively as a member of the Groundwater Relief team, and a commitment to the Charity’s vision and mission is essential.
As a trustee you will find the role both central to the success of the charity, and inspiring in the work that it undertakes. Trustees set the strategic direction of the charity and work closely with the CEO. They also ensure that the charity is forward-thinking, running as efficiently as possible and is reaching its goals.
But being a trustee is not all one way as you will find the role rewarding and fulfilling, and also a way to learn new skills and share your skills, knowledge, and experience with others. The role is dynamic, and it will put you at the heart of the charity, working in a team of like-minded people who make a difference to the lives of others.
