Could you be our next Trustee?

What is in it for me?

Being a Trustee requires time, commitment and enthusiasm, but is a rewarding experience. 

• You will be meet new people and be part of diverse team who are all as dedicated and passionate as you
• You will be supporting an important cause and making a difference to nature’s recovery in your local area
• You will gain experience working at a strategic level of an organisation
• You will have the chance to share your valuable experience and knowledge
• You will be doing something that makes a difference to this and future generations
• We offer an induction process and cover some expenses

What are we looking for?

No prior experience as a Trustee is required, just a willingness and commitment to help shape our future work and continue our success and development. Life experience, volunteering, community involvement and personal passion are just as valued as work-based knowledge and skills.

While we want to hear from anyone who feels they would make a good Trustee, we particularly welcome interest from people with expertise in subject areas relevant to this stage in the development and implementation of our new strategy, including:

• Finance
• Nature conservation
• Secondary, Further or Higher Education
• Health and Social well-being
• Legal expertise
• Community engagement/Social inclusion and behaviour change

Importantly, our current Honorary Treasurer steps down at the 2021 AGM, and we are looking for a suitably-qualified Trustee to take up the role from that point.

We are committed to creating an inclusive environment for employees, volunteers and Trustees and to creating an organisation that recognises and truly values individual differences and identities. We particularly welcome applications from people aged under 40; people with disabilities; people from the LGBTQ community and Black, Asian, and minority ethnic people. These demographics are currently under-represented on our Board of Trustees.
