What does it look like to Chair a charity at a pivotal moment of change?

Voluntary Action North Somerset (VANS) is an established infrastructure charity supporting, connecting and championing voluntary and community organisations across North Somerset and beyond.

With a strong local reputation and a clear ambition for the future, VANS plays a vital role in strengthening communities by bringing organisations together, amplifying collective voice, and enabling others to deliver impact.

Now, at an important point in its development, the organisation is focused on building on its strengths, refining how it works, and positioning itself to be futureproof. We’re looking for a new Chair to lead the charity into its next phase.

Location: Based in North Somerset working across the South West and beyond
Remuneration: Voluntary, with expenses covered

Time commitment:Governance commitment supported by a Vice-Chair. Currently, 4 Board meetings and 2 Development days per annum, 3-4 Governance group meetings, regular meetings with the CEO, as well as ad-hoc meetings, preparation and urgent matters arising.

About the opportunity

This is a Chair role with real scope to shape both direction and approach. You’ll work alongside a committed Board and Chief Executive to provide strategic leadership, focus on achieving growth, and building a high-performing team and organisation as it continues to evolve.

As Chair, you’ll play a key role in:

• Keeping the Board focused, effective and forward‑looking
• Providing support and constructive challenge to the Chief Executive
• Ensuring clear governance, decision-making, and delivery

About you

We’re open to different backgrounds and pathways into this role. You may already be a Chair, or an experienced trustee or senior leader ready to be one. What matters most is your ability to provide confident, thoughtful and effective leadership.

We’re particularly interested in people who can:

• Operate at a senior strategic level and see the bigger picture
• Build strong, effective relationships across a Board and executive team
• Balance support and challenge in a constructive way
• Bring a level of commercial awareness and focus on sustainability

Experience of the voluntary sector, health or place‑based working would be valuable, but it’s not essential if you can quickly build that understanding.

Why this role matters

VANS has laid solid foundations under the previous Chair’s tenure, with a strong local reputation, passionate people and now gathering momentum.

The next Chair will play an important role in ensuring the organisation is:

· Strategically-focussed, well governed and meets its goals

· Investing in building VANS and financially resilient

• Ready to grow its impact across North Somerset and beyond

This is a unique and special opportunity to meaningfully contribute to an organisation at the heart of community life.

As the Guild has grown in the past few years, our risk management, financial controls, and body of policies and procedures have also matured. Following the scheduled departure of two trustees earlier this year, the Guild’s Finance Subcommittee is seeking to welcome an independent member with relevant skills to attend meetings and advise on financial matters to help us make good decisions effectively.

This voluntary role supports trustees and staff by providing independent insight, constructive scrutiny, and professional expertise on financial planning, budgeting, risk, and long-term sustainability. As a guest to Finance Subcommittee meetings, you will review financial information, contribute to discussions, and help ensure resources are used effectively to maximise our charitable impact for students.

The Finance Subcommittee currently consists of two elected Officers, two external Trustees, and may include a student trustee in future. Papers and reports are ordinarily provided by the Guild Director, who is a non-voting guest to Subcommittee meetings. The Subcommittee normally meets four times per year for around two hours.

Students’ Union experience is not essential, but we are seeking a volunteer able to operate within our distinctive context. We are particularly interested in applicants with experience in finance, accounting, audit, charity governance, or business management.

SUNSHINE Charity — Positivity • Human Connection • Community • Belonging

SUNSHINE Charity is a vibrant, 100% volunteer‑powered start‑up movement dedicated to bringing SUNSHINE into people’s lives. We aim to help smash loneliness and social isolation by creating welcoming opportunities to connect, participate, learn, volunteer, make friends and feel like you belong.

• We are joyful.
• We are human.
• We are community-powered.
• And now, we are ready for a skilled, organised, confident Company Secretary to help guide our next chapter.

Why We Need You

SUNSHINE is growing — fast. Our programmes, events and volunteer opportunities are about to launch across London, and our governance needs to stay strong, structured and steady as we expand.

Our Founder, who has been carrying the charity forward with enormous heart and energy, is stepping back from leading the board to focus on operational delivery. He will remain as Vice Chair, offering continuity and support — but we now need a Company Secretary who can bring clarity, organisation and governance confidence to a developing board.

Our current trustees are passionate, committed and enthusiastic, but apart from the Founder, they are new to trusteeship. We need someone who can:

• Keep us compliant

• Keep us organised

• Keep us aligned

• Keep us moving

• And help shape a board that reflects SUNSHINE’s culture of positivity, connection, community and belonging

If you’re an experienced governance professional, administrator, trustee, or someone who simply loves structure, accuracy and good process — this role is made for you.

What You’ll Do

As Company Secretary of SUNSHINE Charity, you will:

• Ensure our governance is strong, compliant and well-documented.

• Prepare and circulate board papers, agendas and minutes.

• Maintain statutory records and filings.

• Support the Chair and Vice Chair with board coordination.

• Provide guidance on best practice and charity governance.

• Help newer trustees understand their responsibilities.

• Keep our board running smoothly, positively and professionally.

You’ll be joining a charity where kindness is a superpower, community is everything, and every volunteer helps bring SUNSHINE into people’s lives.

This role can be taken as either:

• A Trustee position, joining the Board formally.

• A Non‑Trustee position, supporting governance without voting responsibilities.

Time Commitment

We keep things simple, structured and manageable.

• Board meetings: Every 3rd Monday, 7–9pm.

• Working groups: Light involvement between meetings.

• Total commitment: Around 4 hours per month.

This is a role designed for someone who wants to make a meaningful difference without an overwhelming time burden.

Who We’re Looking For

You’ll thrive in this role if you are:

• Experienced in governance, admin, compliance or charity operations.

• Confident with documentation, organisation and record‑keeping.

• Calm, structured and detail‑focused.

• Warm, encouraging and people‑positive.

• Skilled at supporting and guiding newer trustees.

• Passionate about tackling loneliness and building community.

• Energised by SUNSHINE’s culture of positivity, human connection, community and belonging.

What You’ll Gain

• The chance to shape a charity with huge heart and huge potential.

• A close, collaborative relationship with the Chair and Vice Chair.

• The opportunity to build strong governance foundations from the start.

• The joy of helping people feel connected, valued and part of a community.

• A role where your organisational superpowers genuinely change lives.

Ready to Bring Your Light to SUNSHINE?

If you’re someone who loves good governance, clear structure and helping a board shine — we’d love to hear from you.

Join the SUNSHINE movement.

Help us bring connection, community and belonging to London.
