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.

• 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.
• Adhere to the Code of Conduct at all times, particularly when exercising the functions of the Trustee, or any of its sub-committees or groups.

Who we are
RoadPeace was established in 1992 by Brigitte Chaudry, a mother whose son was violently killed by a van driver who ignored red traffic lights. We are a membership organisation whose work is informed by the needs and experiences of road crash victims. RoadPeace is governed by a Board of Trustees and has a small staff team, who work in partnership with a vibrant network of members and volunteers.

The role
RoadPeace has a vision for a world where road danger is not tolerated and where road crash victims receive justice and compassion.
We exist to support and empower those bereaved and injured by road crashes and their families; to improve the justice system’s post-crash response and to spare future generations from preventable death and injury. As a membership charity, we put victims at the heart of our work, equipping them to support themselves and others, campaign for change and shape RoadPeace’s work.
Following its 30th anniversary, Roadpeace is looking towards the next chapter and after reviewing how to develop and strengthen the charity, is in the process of creating a new strategy.
We are seeking to appoint a dynamic and compassionate Treasurer to provide financial insight and leadership to the Board, assist with the new strategy and ensure that the organisation has long-term sustainability and delivers its charitable objectives in close cooperation with the Board of Trustees, Chair and CEO.
We would like to work with a Treasurer who has strong empathy with the organisation’s objectives and has some understanding or interest in what it means to be bereaved or seriously injured in a road crash.
We would like to hear from you if you have the financial skills or expertise for this role, whether in the public or private sectors. Fundraising experience is desirable.
