Chair – Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Committee
If you understand the importance of amplifying the voices of those who’ve not been heard - we’re listening. How would you like to be a key part of driving change for volunteering and charities? Do you have expertise, lived experience, knowledge and skills around equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI)? Are you someone with a good understanding of the value of diverse communities, or an EDI practitioner? Are you willing to bring your passion and interest to work with staff and trustees to steer our new approach?
In order to achieve the greatest possible impact for volunteering and charities, NCVO is transforming the way it works. We have a new strategy which is underpinned by refreshed values: collaborative, inclusive, open, and ambitious for charities and volunteering. Central to our new strategy is a determination to make NCVO a more equitable, diverse and inclusive organisation both internally and in our wider work to support the voluntary sector.
Last summer the trustee board established an EDI sub-committee. This was an important first step in supporting and holding the organisation to account in our EDI work. We are now looking for an independent chair for this committee.
What do we need from you?
- Minimum commitment of six days a year (to chair the EDI committee meetings, occasional ad hoc meetings and meeting preparation)
- To demonstrate an understanding from your own experience of the importance of equity, diversity and inclusion - and how to centre our work on this
- Some experience of leading change and the value of working together with diverse communities to achieve this
- Energy to help steer this work with the staff, trustees and stakeholders
What will you get in return?
- A chance to work with others to explore and build ideas and make change in the voluntary sector
- An opportunity to work with trustees and staff to lead this strategically important area of work
- Although this is not a trustee role, you will get support to understand the role of governance through access to relevant training and resources, as needed
- The opportunity to chair a recently formed EDI sub-committee of NCVO’s board, working with the CEO and newly appointed chair of the board
- Reimbursement of reasonable expenses

At Stonewall, our vision is for a world where everyone, everywhere can be themselves. We work to ensure acceptance without exception, so that lesbian, gay, bi and trans (LGBT) people around the world can participate fully in society and enjoy lives free from discrimination. We work to do this in a way that is aligned to our values.
Stonewall has achieved many great things since we were founded in 1989, from securing legislation which allowed same-sex couples to marry, to the repeal of Section 28.
But today, over thirty years later, our work feels more vital than ever. Our research shows that life for many LGBT people is still tough - hate crime and discrimination remain commonplace at home, work, school, and in public. We also know that COVID-19 is having a particularly acute impact on LGBT people, many of whom have found themselves trapped in hostile home environments or cut off from support networks.
But there remains much to do and our Board is working to help steer the direction of Stonewall, ensure it is fit and able to meet new challenges including the current pandemic and support our new senior executive team as we build our new strategy.
Trustees
Unremunerated
We are seeking to appoint new Trustees who may have a background in a range of areas to support our work in the following areas; professional fundraising or campaigning; digital transformation; crisis communications or political management and human resource leadership. We also seek the lived experience of black people and people of colour; of trans and non-binary people; those living and working outside the capital and our straight allies.
Most important, the successful candidates will be able to embody and model Stonewall's values and behaviours - able to demonstrate understanding of both privilege and intersectionality and the challenges that face the identities and communities that Stonewall supports.
We are committed to ensuring we have a range of diverse experience on the Board. This enables us to benefit on the Board from the very diversity that we seek to achieve in society.
