What we’re looking for
You’ll bring:
- A genuine commitment to animal welfare and to the League’s mission and values: Compassionate, Courageous, Credible, Collaborative and Connected.
- Strategic thinking, sound judgment and the ability to analyse complex information to make evidence-based decisions.
- Experience of operating at a senior or strategic level, ideally within a board or governance setting.
- A commitment to the principles of good governance and the Seven Principles of Public Life (selflessness, integrity, objectivity, accountability, openness, honesty and leadership).

- Additional engagement between meetings as needed (approximately 1–2 days per month).
Trustee positions are unremunerated, with reasonable expenses reimbursed.
