Cambridge Nightline is a confidential and anonymous listening service run by students, for students. We have been providing peer-to-peer support to students at the University of Cambridge and Anglia Ruskin University for over 50 years. We offer support via telephone and instant messaging (IM), and open at night when other support services are often closed.
Cambridge Nightline has recently appointed a Board of Trustees, and is working towards becoming a registered charity. Our aim as Trustees is to provide oversight and guidance to the student Executive Committee, whilst supporting them as much as possible to continue to lead the direction of the service.
We are now seeking a voluntary Treasurer to join the Board of Trustees.
For more details about Cambridge Nightline, job description and person specification, please see the attached recruitment pack.
Please note, this position is open to applicants resident in the United Kingdom, the Isle of Man, or the Channel Islands.

The Treasurer of the Board will work closely with the Student Treasurer to oversee the budget and financial administration, and to ensure the sustainability of the organisation’s funding and reserves. As Cambridge Nightline works towards becoming a registered charity, you will provide advice and guidance to the Board of Trustees to ensure financial compliance with charity law.

Brightside is on a mission to help young people make confident and informed decisions about their future. For over 20 years, we’ve used technology to connect young people facing barriers with inspiring mentors. We deliver online mentoring programmes in collaboration with schools, universities, businesses and charities to provide young people with access to networks, online career information and high-quality mentoring.
The UK is inherently unfair, still in 2026, your future success is more likely to be determined by where you were born or what your parents do than your abilities. At Brightside, we are determined to change the system from the ground up, providing young people and schools with role models, support networks and skills to empower them to meet their aspirations.
We are a small but mighty charity, currently reaching 6,500 young people across the UK a year, but with innovative plans to meet the need of thousands more. To do this we are looking to build on our dynamic board of trustees and have a new position available. Right now, we are looking for a Trustee to join the Board who has deep expertise with marketing and communications. At Brightside we work on marketing to attract young people to become mentees, volunteers to become mentors and partners to fund our services – ranging from commercial organisations to grant funders to schools and universities.
The board of trustees supports the Chief Executive and Senior Leadership Team, providing strategic direction, guidance and practical advice.
The trustee will play a vital role in giving our staff guidance on building a strong brand for the charity with our limited means and to attract more mentees, mentors and funders. We want to radically improve our marketing to young people and get consistency in our messaging across all channels and platforms. The ideal candidate will have direct experience with brand and performance marketing, particularly in channels we use extensively at Brightside including email, social, brochure / leaflet (e.g. impact reports, funder info collateral) etc. We are particularly interested to hear from candidates with experience in youth marketing, social mobility and securing funding for charitable organisations. Having said that, if you do not have all this direct experience do not hesitate to apply if you have strong marketing and comms skills and a strong passion for our mission.
