Job description

Do you have experience supporting Boards and senior leadership in a governance role, ensuring smooth operations and alignment? Join Shelter as a Governance Officer, where you will coordinate Board and Committee activities, manage Board papers, and facilitate effective communication across the organisation. You will support Directors, Assistant Directors and Executive Assistants with agendas and papers, track key decisions, maintain accurate records, and ensure compliance with governance standards.

About the role

The Governance Officer plays a crucial role in ensuring that Shelter's governance framework operates effectively and in line with legal requirements, and best practice.

The postholder will act as the administrative liaison between the Board, Committees, and Executive Leadership Team (ELT), ensuring that Board meetings remain strategically focused while operational matters are effectively delegated.

Role specifics

We are seeking a proactive individual to manage Board and Committee activities, acting as the primary point of contact for all Board-related matters. You will coordinate Board meetings, develop and track governance calendars, and ensure that agendas, minutes, and key decisions are communicated effectively to the Board, ELT, and the wider organisation. Additionally, you will work closely with Directors and Executive Assistants (EAs) to support the management of committee agendas and papers, ensuring a focus on strategic issues.

The role also involves overseeing the preparation, review, and quality control of Board papers, ensuring accuracy, clarity, and timeliness. You will streamline governance processes, provide logistical support for meetings, maintain records, and track actions to ensure compliance with governance standards. Moreover, you will facilitate Board engagement by developing feedback mechanisms and supporting Trustee development, ensuring alignment with Shelter's strategic goals.

Apply to be part of our team and be the change you want to see in society.

Benefits 

We offer a wide range of benefits, including 30 days of annual leave, enhanced family friendly policies, pension and interest free travel loans. Our employees also have access to a tenancy deposit loan, payroll giving, cycle to work scheme and an employee assistance programme.

Shelter helps millions of people every year struggling with bad housing or homelessness through our advice, support and legal services. And we campaign to make sure that, one day, no one will have to turn to us for help. We’re here so no one has to fight bad housing or homelessness on their own.

We are happy to talk about flexible working, personal growth, and to promote a workplace where you can be yourself and achieve success based only on your merit.

About the team

The Strategy Enablement Directorate brings together our core support functions of HR Delivery, Finance, Tech & Data, Governance, Planning and Property, and is led by the Director of Strategy Enablement and four Assistant Directors.

At Shelter, we do not see our support functions as merely transactional - we are both enablers and keepers of Shelter’s strategic objectives. Striving to be a centre of excellence, we work with colleagues to ensure organisational objectives are clear and strategically aligned, whilst supporting with the removal of any internal obstacles that emerge on the way. 

About Shelter

Home is a human right. It’s our foundation and where we thrive. Yet everyday millions of people are being devastated by the housing emergency.

We exist to defend the right to a safe home. Because home is everything.

We need ambitious, passionate people to join us. This is your chance to play a part in the fundamental change we are striving to achieve.

Our enemy is the social injustice at the core of the escalating housing emergency. To win this fight, we must be representative of the people we are here to help and those who support our movement. In all our people decisions, we take pride in being inclusive, equitable and transparent. We are committed to combating racism both within and outside Shelter. We welcome you on our journey to becoming truly anti-racist.

Safeguarding statement 

Safeguarding is everyone's business. Shelter is committed to protecting the health, wellbeing and human rights of those we support, and enabling them to live free from harm, abuse and neglect. All our staff will be expected to observe professional standards of behaviour and conduct their work in line with our Safeguarding Policies.

Shelter does not accept unsolicited CVs from external recruitment agencies nor accept the fees associated with them.
