Background
Thyroid UK is a charitable company working primarily within the United Kingdom. Formed in 1998, we became a company limited by guarantee in 2007 and in 2008 we became a registered charity.
The provision of quality information for people with both diagnosed and undiagnosed thyroid disorders is the primary concern of Thyroid UK, and we work effectively in this field through dialogue with NHS departments, networking with other voluntary organisations, and providing services directly to patients.
We are a small charity, with just three permanent employees, plus contract staff, but we have a wide influence, and provide a great deal of support to our beneficiaries, within the UK and abroad. The charity’s annual income in 2023 was £96,900.54 , with the majority of that income being spent on both running the charity and conducting campaigns and activities to support our beneficiaries.
The Thyroid UK Board of Trustees is a diverse group of 7 individuals, including the CEO, a Chairperson, Deputy Chair and Treasurer. Our board members have a collective responsibility. This means that our trustees always act as a group and not as individuals.
Our trustees play a vital role in making sure that Thyroid UK achieves its objectives. They oversee the overall management and administration of the charity. They also ensure that Thyroid UK has a clear strategy and that our work and goals are in line with our vision. Just as importantly, they support the executive team to enable Thyroid UK to grow, thrive and achieve its mission.
Role
We are looking for a trustee who will support and provide advice on Thyroid UK’s purpose, vision, goals and activities. Their duties include:
· Approve operational strategies & policies and monitor/evaluate their implementation.
· Review/approve Thyroid UK’s financial plans, statements and budgets, and evaluate progress.
· Ensure the effective and efficient administration of the organisation.
· Ensure that key risks are being identified, monitored and controlled effectively.
· Support Thyroid UK’s CEO in the exercise of their delegated authority and affairs.
· Hold the chief executive to account for the effective management and delivery of the organisation’s strategic aims and objectives, where appropriate
· Keep abreast of changes in Thyroid UK’s operating environment.
· Contribute to regular reviews of Thyroid UK’s own governance. Attend board meetings, adequately prepared to contribute to discussions.
· Use independent judgment, acting legally and in good faith to promote and protect Thyroid UK’s interests, to the exclusion of their own personal and/or any third party interests.
· Contribute to the broader promotion of Thyroid UK’s objects, aims and reputation by applying your skills, expertise, knowledge and contacts.
As a small charity, there will be times when the trustees will need to be actively involved beyond board meetings. This may involve scrutinising board papers, leading discussions, focusing on key issues, providing advice and guidance on new initiatives, presenting externally, or other issues in which the trustee has special expertise.
Time requirement
The role will require a time commitment of an average of 1 to 2 days per month, with more time required in some months than others. This includes three planned board meetings of approximately 3 hours (two held online and one held in London with the option to join remotely, if needed) and the Thyroid UK AGM.
Term of office
The term of a thyroid UK trustee is two years, following which the Trustees may re-elect the position for a further one or two term(s).
Remuneration
Thyroid UK is a charitable, not-for-profit organisation. Trustee roles are not remunerated. However, reasonable expenses for travel can be paid for those not living in London.
Key Responsibilities
We are looking for people willing to bring energy, enthusiasm and commitment to the role, and who will broaden the diversity of thinking on our board. You do not need previous governance experience – we will provide a full induction and training.
Personal skills and qualities
· Willingness and ability to understand and accept responsibilities and liabilities as trustees and to act in the best interests of the organisation.
· Ability to think creatively and strategically, exercise good, independent judgement and work effectively as a board member.
· Effective communication skills and willingness to participate actively in discussion.
· A strong personal commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion.
· Enthusiasm for our vision and mission.
· Willingness to lead according to our values.

The Paristamen Charity is a small grant-making charity. Most of our grants provide unrestricted support a wide range of small charities across Scotland. We typically award £50k - £60k grants/year, though this is likely to increase slightly in the coming years.
We are seeking someone with broad experience in the voluntary sector to join us as a trustee - this would be a great opportunity for a fundraiser who wishes to get some experience from the other side of the table - assessing applications and making decisions as a grant-maker.
We operate with a small board of four trustees - one of the existing trustees is now stepping down and we are thus looking to appoint a new trustee for three years 2024-27. Trustee meeting take place three times a year in Dunbar or Edinburgh.
Our objects include the advancement of the Christian faith so some experience of the church sector would be helpful. However, this is only one aspect - the majority of our grants are awarded to a broad range of charities working in fields such as poverty, homelessness, health, prisoners and refugees.
