Job description

At PSS, everything starts with people. We work alongside individuals, families and communities to create support shaped by real lives and real voices. Our mission is simple: to help create lives beyond limits, where everyone has choice, control and a genuine sense of belonging.

And we're looking for up to four new Trustees to join our brilliant Board as we move into an exciting new chapter. With a new Chief Executive, a fresh strategic plan for 2026–2030 and lots of ambition, now is a fantastic time to get involved.

Who we’re looking for

You don’t need previous board experience to apply. What matters most to us is who you are, what you care about and the perspective you bring.

  • Finance and audit
  • Social care
  • Commercial or market awareness
  • Lived experience of services like ours

Above all, we’re looking for people who share our values – big-hearted, open-minded, genuine, professional and determined – and who believe in social justice, equity and inclusion.

What being a Trustee involves

As a Trustee, you’ll help shape the future of PSS by:

  • Sitting on our Board and one of our sub-committees
  • Helping guide our strategy and decision-making
  • Making sure we’re safe, sustainable and true to our values
  • Working in partnership with our teammates and the people we support

The time commitment is around one day a month, plus four Board meetings a year and two away days.

  • Be part of a warm, supportive and values-led organisation
  • Learn new skills and gain board-level experience
  • Meet inspiring people from a wide range of backgrounds
