Use your expertise to shape education, influence communities, and grow as a leader. Roles available at colleges England.
Are you a business leader or corporate professional looking to make a meaningful impact outside the boardroom?
By becoming a volunteer governor at a further education (FE) or sixth form college, you’ll help shape the strategic direction of an organisation that transforms lives through education and skills—while strengthening your own governance experience and leadership credentials.
Why it’s relevant to professionals like you
Further Education colleges train over 1.6 million learners annually, preparing the skilled workforce that keeps our economy moving—from engineers and IT specialists to healthcare professionals and construction experts.
As a college governor, you’ll sit on the board of an FE institution (and registered charity), where your insight into strategy, risk, people, or finance will have a direct impact on how public funds are spent, how performance is measured, and how learners are supported to succeed.
This is an opportunity to:
- Apply your corporate skills in a charitable leadership role
- Gain board-level experience and enhance your CV
- Contribute to local economic growth and social mobility
- Support a vital sector during a time of transformation
What you’ll do
As part of a governing board, you’ll:
- Set strategic direction: Help define the college’s mission and goals
- Hold leadership to account: Monitor finances, performance, and outcomes
- Ensure governance excellence: Make decisions in the best interests of learners and stakeholders
- Act as a charity trustee: Ensure financial sustainability and legal compliance
You’ll also engage with senior leaders and external stakeholders, including local employers, regulators, and community partners.
Who we’re looking for
We welcome professionals from a broad range of sectors, including but not limited to:
- Finance, Audit & Risk
- HR, People & Culture
- Strategy, Transformation & Operations
- Technology, AI & Digital
- Legal, Governance & Compliance
- Marketing, PR & Communications
- Education, Apprenticeships or vocational courses
What matters most is your strategic thinking, commercial awareness, and commitment to helping others succeed.
Prior education experience is not required. Full induction and training are provided, with access to DfE-funded development and peer mentoring where needed.
Time commitment
Expect to give approximately 1–2 days per month, including:
- Attending board and committee meetings (in-person or remote)
- Reading papers and preparing questions
- Participating in training and occasional college visits
The time commitment is manageable alongside a full-time role—and many employers actively support staff to take on governance roles as part of their professional development.
Where you’ll be needed
Some colleges offer remote governance and meetings take place online. This may suit you best, or we may suggest a role where you volunteer on a hybrid basis at a college within a reasonable distance from you. We are recruiting governors for colleges across England, with new opportunities added regularly.
What’s in it for you?
· Enhance your board-level and governance experience
· Develop strategic oversight and leadership outside your day-to-day role
· Expand your professional network
·Give back in a way that creates long-term, measurable impact
· Gain exposure to the education, charity, and public sectors
Ready to step into a strategic, purpose-driven leadership role?
If you’re ready to bring your corporate insight to the education sector and help shape the future of skills, opportunity, and social mobility—we’d love to hear from you.

You know what it's like to practice as a solicitor. You've navigated the pressures, the culture, and the unspoken expectations. Now, imagine using that hard-won understanding to create meaningful change for neurodivergent colleagues who are struggling to find their place in our profession.
We're looking for a qualified solicitor who gets it - someone who can help us build programmes and campaigns that will work because they're grounded in the reality of solicitor practice.
Why does this role need to be solicitor-only?
We need someone who understands the culture, systems, and pressures of solicitor life from the inside. The work involves shaping strategy, influencing decision-makers, and ensuring our programmes reflect the real experiences of neurodivergent solicitors. A qualified solicitor brings both lived experience and professional standing, which helps build trust and makes our work more effective. This isn't about hierarchy, but about grounding the role in practical, credible experience that resonates with the people we're trying to help.
What we're looking for
We need a qualified solicitor who can be our eyes and ears within the profession - someone who understands not just the law, but the culture that surrounds it.
Your background might include:
-
Current qualification as a solicitor (England and Wales)
-
Real experience working in or with solicitor firms and organisations
-
Understanding of how solicitor practice works - the good, the challenging, and everything in between
-
Genuine commitment to making the profession more inclusive for neurodivergent colleagues
-
The ability to communicate with everyone from trainees to senior partners
What would be brilliant (but not essential):
-
Experience across different types of solicitor practice - private practice, in-house, government, legal aid
-
Personal understanding of neurodiversity challenges in professional settings
-
A network of contacts within the solicitor profession
-
Background in training, mentoring, or professional development
-
Experience in charity/not-for-profit law, employment law, or disability rights
What you'll be doing
This isn't about sitting in meetings talking theory. You'll be:
Being our solicitor reality-check:
-
Sharing insights about profession culture, challenges, and opportunities that only an insider would know
-
Helping us identify the real barriers neurodivergent solicitors face and practical solutions that might work
-
Ensuring our initiatives make sense in the context of how solicitor firms actually operate
Shaping our strategy:
-
Contributing the solicitor's perspective to our programme development
-
Advising on the best approaches for engaging with firms, training providers, and professional bodies
-
Helping develop resources that work in real solicitor practice environments
Being our face in the profession:
-
Representing us at solicitor-focused events and networks
-
Building relationships that open doors and create opportunities
-
Speaking at events and contributing to professional discussions where your voice carries weight
Developing what matters:
-
Advising on training and support programmes that solicitors will actually use
-
Helping create career guidance that reflects modern solicitor pathways
-
Supporting research and policy work that affects how solicitors practice
The need-to-know
Time commitment: Around 4-8 hours per month - one monthly trustee meeting plus the solicitor-specific work, and the occasional extra task that crops up.
Term: We're looking for a minimum 2-year commitment initially, which then becomes a rolling 1-year term subject to the constitutional requirements.
When we meet: We will be setting our meeting dates at the start of the organisation's year (October 2025) so everyone can plan ahead.
Next steps:
-
Applications close: 5 September 2025 at 17:00
-
Interview dates: TBC - dependent on application numbers
-
Next board meeting: TBC
Why this role matters
The legal profession is slowly waking up to neurodiversity, but too often the conversation happens without the people who actually understand day-to-day practice. We've seen well-meaning initiatives fail because they don't reflect the reality of billable hours, client demands, and firm hierarchies.
Your perspective as a practising solicitor isn't just valuable - it's essential. You know which ideas will work and which ones will gather dust in the diversity folder. You understand the language that resonates with partners and the approaches that will actually make a change.
What we offer in return
-
Real influence: Your insights directly shape our strategy and programmes
-
Professional development: Gain charity governance experience and expand your network
-
Meaningful impact: See your profession become more inclusive for future generations
-
Supportive environment: Work with a committed team that respects both your time and expertise
-
Flexibility: We’re a team of working professionals and always work around professional commitments
-
Recognition: References, recommendations, and opportunities to speak on topics you care about
-
Expenses covered: We reimburse reasonable costs related to your trustee work
We're committed to inclusive recruitment and welcome applications from all backgrounds. If you need any adjustments to our application process, just let us know.
Application deadline: 5 September 2025 at 17:00
Raising awareness, providing support, and reducing the stigma surrounding neurodiversity in the legal profession.
