- Support the delivery of our national conference, including attendance at the weekend itself during the Easter university holidays;
- Where possible, attend our induction day, for new executive members each year.

Work Location: Remote
Trustee – Fundraising Representative
Role title: Trustee
Location: Marwell Wildlife
Reports to: Chair of the Board of Trustees
The Trustee Role
As a registered charity, our governance and overall leadership rests with our Board of Trustees, who work alongside the Chief Executive and Director team. While membership of the Board is voluntary, and without remuneration (reasonable expenses are paid) it is a highly rewarding experience where Trustees contribute actively, and take significant responsibility for the governance and strategic direction of our organisation. Those already in this role find it extremely fulfilling and are a vital part of the Marwell family. With exciting times ahead, we are looking to complement our existing Board of Trustees with a suitably experienced and highly qualified Fundraising professional. In addition to the generic responsibilities and skills required of Board members, Marwell requires someone who can demonstrate extensive charitable fundraising expertise, at a Director or Chief Executive level. Ideally, they will have relevant experience of fundraising governance, major giving and large-scale capital appeals. This role, like many Board appointments, is non-executive but critical in our overall governance, leadership and understanding of best practice.
Main Duties
Role-specific
• To champion fundraising at Board level.
• To work with the Board, CEO, Directors and senior leadership to embed a culture of fundraising throughout the organisation.
• To provide strategic overview and advise the Board on fundraising governance, compliance and regulation, in support of the senior management team.
• To actively harness the energy and contacts of all trustees to support fundraising initiatives, through appropriate use of their networks, sources and their presence at fundraising and other events.
• To support the fundraising team, as appropriate, on fundraising strategy and activities.
• To support the creation of and take a leading role in a new ‘Development Board’
General
• Participate in supporting and regularly reviewing the strategic aims and operational progress of the organisation.
• Ensure, alongside fellow Trustees, that the policies and practices of the organisation are in keeping with its overall aims and objectives.
• Ensure, alongside fellow Trustees, that the organisation functions within the legal and financial requirements of a charitable organisation and strives to achieve best practice.
• Consider the organisation as a whole and its beneficiaries, whether as a member of the Board or any of its sub-committees.
• Reflect the organisation’s vision and principles, strategy and major policies at all times.
