What you’ll do – the key responsibilities

To ensure that equity, diversity and inclusion is a key priority across all PN activity so that we are supporting policing by attracting, developing and retaining the most diverse and talented groups, enabling us to achieve our mission of transforming communities. You will promote, champion and encourage equity, diversity and inclusion in the workplace and will monitor the key areas of performance (listed below), using data, experience and innovation:

Police Now Headquarters

•Supporting PNHQ to understand the importance and benefits of equity, diversity and inclusion both in policing and in the workplace.

•Achieving a representative and fairly rewarded staff group at PNHQ, to reflect our communities, particularly with a London-based HQ; supporting traditionally underrepresented groups in the workplace to thrive and reach management and leadership positions.

Police Now Programmes

•Identifying and promoting opportunities for innovation so that there is no trade-off between diversity (prioritising gender and ethnicity but also considering other protected characteristics and intersectionality) and talent on those joining and progressing through our graduate programmes.

•Monitoring progress and impact of women and ethnic minority officers in particular and providing positive action guidance.

 Police Now Alumni

•Focusing on supporting a diverse range of participants through positive performance and retention, so that those completing our programmes and staying in policing are representative of the communities they serve.

•Nurturing those that have the potential to progress to Chief Officer and Superintendent ranks.

•Driving our new programmes of work specifically focused on the promotion of diverse officers.

What you’ll need – the person specification

•A recognised expert in equity, diversity & inclusion with prior experience developing and delivering equity, diversity & inclusion strategies that have had tangible outcomes in any sector; deep knowledge of workforce representation and challenges in the UK.

•An interest in the UK policing sector and an understanding of the equity, diversity & inclusion challenges, especially regarding gender and race in policing. Whilst direct exposure to the policing sector can be beneficial, we are particularly interested in those who can bring fresh perspectives from a variety of industries or organisations.

•At least 5+years in a senior role as part of a leadership team or executive team, with significant senior stakeholder exposure.

•Previous non-executive or trustee governance expertise is desirable but is not essential; as a minimum, an expert in EDI.

•Experience in quality assurance regarding strategy development and delivery, as well as risk management and mitigation.

•Familiarity with data and analysis, and an ability to use storytelling with data.

Job Description

A contracted Ministry of Justice Approved Premises and Housing Charity working with released offenders on prison licenses and ex-offenders, to break the revolving door of re-offending, homelessness, and prison. Trustees will use their knowledge, experience, and skills in an environment they may not have previously encountered.

What will you be doing?

Trustees meet every two months with the Senior Management Team (SMT) at the Charity offices to monitor activities, finances, and development of the organisation, giving advice to the SMT and making such decisions as required to ensure the organisation is acting appropriately to meet the requirements of our stakeholders; Ministry of Justice, National Probation Service, Leeds Local Authority and within Charity Commission regulations. 

The Organisation has grown rapidly, and it is essential that the Board of Trustees develops to meet the broad needs of this Charity. 

New Trustees will contribute to the stability and support, advice, and opportunity that the Charity provides to enable vulnerable ex-offenders to do things differently and by offering their experience and specialist knowledge in the areas identified will add depth and breadth to the existing Board of Trustees.

Additional time and specialist advice given as and when required, will enable the SMT to respond effectively to new challenges and external changes as they occur whilst the SMT concentrate on the day-to-day work of the Charity and its staff.

New Trustees must want to make a difference to individual lives and wider society by supporting the SMT and staff to help those vulnerable ex-offenders with very specific and high-risk offending histories, who are being released from long or repeated prison sentences, to believe that they can live positive fulfilling lifestyles.  It is essential that Trustees can view our service users with an open mind.

What are we looking for?

New Trustees are being sought with experience of Accounting and Auditing, Housing and Private Letting Legislation, accessing Funding opportunities, Police or Probation work, Mental Health, or Substance misuse fields.

It is vital that new Trustees have an affinity with the aims of the Charity and appreciate the value of giving individuals a chance to change their future and leave their offending lifestyle behind and the important role that stable accommodation plays in enabling individuals to turn their goals into reality. 

Not all skills need to be specialist and an understanding of the barriers to prison release re-settlement, housing, employment, and stable relationships that many disadvantaged or vulnerable people in society face on a day-to-day basis is helpful.   

Being able to work within a small team of Trustees and provide good interpersonal, supportive, and positive contributions is important.

If you feel you have valuable experience and skills to contribute and would like a new challenge, we'd love to hear from you.

What difference will you make?

The development and success of the organisation needs to be supported by maintaining the number of trustees and the range of expertise available to provide effective and sustainable governance going forward.  In an environment where government policies and funding strategies are susceptible to change, a robust Board of Trustees will help to maintain the Charity's ability to provide and sustain an effective service. 

This will thereby continue to increase the availability of stable accommodation with support; service user's ability to secure and maintain stable employment; build new relationships and increase access to healthcare and wellbeing support.  As a result, this can lead to reduced reoffending, reduced prison population and cost to the taxpayer and therefore has potential to actively achieve public protection, reduce the impact of offending on victims, families and children of both victims and perpetrators and local communities.

Before you apply

Previous experience of Charity Governance would be useful but not necessary.  Please contact us via Reach with any questions you may have, and we will be pleased to discuss the opportunity on offer.
