Join us as trustee to help a charity find someone a place to call home
The Bond Board is a small but ambitious charity working to reduce homelessness by helping people access and keep homes in the private rented sector. We’ve been going since 1993 and are proud of our grassroots approach, our resilience, and our impact.
We started with Bond Guarantees to help people into housing without the need for a cash deposit. Today, we also run an ethical lettings agency, bring empty homes back into use, and support people with tenancy advice, financial inclusion, refugee resettlement and more. Our services are shaped by the people who use them, and rooted in partnership and local knowledge.
We’re looking for new trustees who share our values and want to help us grow our impact. You don’t need to have been a trustee before. If you have skills and knowledge that could help us achieve our ambitions, we’d love to hear from you. We’ll make sure you’re well supported from the start, with a full induction and ongoing opportunities to learn and contribute.
We’d especially welcome applications from people with experience in:
· Finance or accountancy
· Fundraising or business development
· Property or landlord experience
· Marketing, PR or digital
· HR or legal
You’ll join a supportive, down-to-earth board and help steer a charity that’s proud to be part of regional and national partnerships, including Housing First and Changing Futures, overcoming barriers for the homeless.
Deadline: 5 June 2025
We’re especially keen to hear from women and people from ethnic minority communities, who are currently underrepresented on our board.
