Quartet’s Board of Trustees helps set our strategic direction, provides leadership and support to our staff team, and makes sure the organisation is well governed.
As a Trustee, you will work with other Board members to form an effective and accountable governing body. Together, Trustees provide leadership and support for the dedicated staff team delivering Quartet’s strategic plan.
The skills and experience we’re looking for
Trustees come from all walks of life, and we want our Board and wider organisation to reflect the diverse communities of the West of England. If you have never been a charity trustee or sat on a board before, please still consider applying or getting in touch to discuss the role.
We are interested in hearing from people who are committed to Quartet’s mission, strategy and values. You will need the judgement, integrity and collaborative approach to fulfil charity trustee responsibilities and contribute to effective strategic governance.
We would also welcome experience or insight relevant to Quartet’s work and strategy. This could include community engagement and social welfare, grant-making, philanthropy, wealth advice, finance and accountancy, law, property, charity governance, or experience in the public or voluntary sectors. We are also interested in people who understand the needs and diversity of Bath and North East Somerset, Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire.
Trustees are expected to attend four board meetings a year and are asked to join one of our four sub-committees which report to the board, each of which normally meets three or four times per year. There may also be occasional panel meetings, events, training and other opportunities to get involved.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
As a charity, our Trustees are the governing body of our organisation. They fulfil a vital role and help ensure that the Mayor’s Fund for London delivers on its mission and purpose and uses its resources effectively. Much more than that, they help set and shape the strategy of the Charity, they live its values, and they are ambassadors on its behalf.
We are currently recruiting for 3 new Trustees.
As a charity that supports and champions better outcomes for young people in London, we are especially interested in recruiting some new trustees aged 24-30. This may be through direct experience of the challenges young Londoners are facing, through experience and knowledge of our programmes and activities, and/or a desire to take a step into a strategic governance role with a charity whose mission matters to them.
The Board already has a wide range of diversity, experience and expertise, and we are keen to continue to broaden that experience through this recruitment. In particular, we are looking for some knowledge in:
At the Mayor’s Fund for London, we want our Trustees to feel part of our team. To bring insights and experience into our organisation, and to be prepared to work collaboratively with staff and young people, to shape opportunities for the future.
The Board meets four times per year (March, July, September, and December), and has one sub-committee covering Finance, Audit and Risk (FAR), which meets two weeks before the Board. Trustees are expected to attend all full Board meetings, and those nominated to join the FAR Committee are expected to attend those meetings too. All of our meetings are currently online to allow flexibility, and there is an expectation that, from time to time, Trustees will engage with the staff team and be present at our events.
