Our client, a long-established charitable trust, exists to support women’s financial resilience and to tackle gendered poverty in the UK. Since 2016, the organisation has awarded over £26 million in grants, directly benefiting more than 150,000 women through individual funding, community-based partnerships, and long-term systemic change initiatives.
The charity is now seeking a new Chair of the Board to guide it through the next phase of its strategic development. This is a significant opportunity to provide leadership to a highly focused and well-governed organisation addressing one of the UK’s most pressing and persistent inequalities.
The incoming Chair will offer inclusive and effective leadership to the Board of Trustees, uphold strong governance practices, support the Chief Executive, and help shape the organisation’s strategic direction. The role will be central in maintaining momentum, reinforcing accountability, and ensuring the organisation continues to respond effectively to the needs of the communities it serves.
The charity is open to exploring alternative leadership models and welcomes interest from those considering a Chair and Deputy Chair arrangement or a Co-Chair model. The priority is securing a collaborative and inclusive approach to board leadership that aligns with the charity’s values.
The ideal candidate will bring:
-
A sound understanding of governance, financial oversight, funding models, and compliance within the charitable sector
-
Proven experience in chairing boards or senior-level committees, with the ability to facilitate inclusive, productive discussions and decision-making
-
Strong strategic thinking skills, with the ability to anticipate change, manage uncertainty, and influence long-term direction
-
A values-led leadership style marked by emotional intelligence, empathy, and integrity
-
A deep commitment to gender equity and a nuanced understanding of the structural drivers of gendered poverty
-
The time and capacity to fully engage with the responsibilities of the role
