As a small but fast-growing charity, we have a strong trustee board in place but are looking to bring in new trustees to help in our new phase of growth and ensure a sustainable future. We are therefore looking for trustees who want to get closely involved in setting the strategy, direction and priorities of Write Back as we transition from new ‘start-up’ into a more established charity. We are therefore looking for individuals with:
● A strong commitment to the work of Write Back and empowering young people.
● The passion and enthusiasm to throw themselves into a new and exciting charity for young people to help us in our next phase of growth.
● The ability and experience of working at a strategic level, providing expert oversight, advice and guidance.

● A good understanding and acceptance of the legal duties, responsibilities and liabilities of charity trusteeship and an appreciation of the personal implications.
● A demonstrable commitment to equality and diversity.
We anticipate growing our trustee board significantly over the next 6-12 months. Our initial priority will be recruiting someone who is at least one of the following:
●experienced in financial processes and oversight.
● experienced in education, such as a qualified teacher.
● experienced in growing a small company or charity, in particular with legal, HR or other operational or governance matters.
● Under the age of 25 and who have lived experienced of the issues Write Back is trying to solve.
However, we are open to applications from a variety of backgrounds and would encourage you to get in touch if you are interested. We are intending to recruit 2 - 3 trustees in total.
Core requirements:
● This is a voluntary unpaid role, for which any reasonable expenses will be reimbursed.
● Your initial term will be for 2 years, with the possibility of renewal.
● Attendance at trustee meetings every two months (either online or in person, for roughly 90 minutes), as well as preparation for these meetings and any follow-up tasks. We estimate the time commitment to be no more than one day per month in total.
