We are looking for a Trustee to join a small team overseeing the overall management and strategic direction of our charity. We are particularly looking for people with experience and in depth knowledge of Human Resource (HR) or Health & Safety
Trustees meet formally once a quarter. But there may be ad-hoc meetings on specific programmes or initiatives we are undertaking. Attendance at quarterly meetings is usually in person at Brunswick Place, but can be by phone or virtual meeting attendance. The quarterly meetings usually start at 4.15 on a Wednesday (3rd Wednesday in January, April, July, and October).

As a Trustee you will need to have Integrity, ability to work collaboratively with the other Trustees, have sound judgement and decision making skills. You will be required to attend meetings and keep up to date with the responsibilities of a Trustee.
There is no specific formal training required to undertake the role, although training opportunities exist in areas such as safeguarding. The Charity Commission has published a useful guide on what's required of a charity trustee, including your responsibilities. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-essential-trustee-what-you-need-to-know-cc3
