Teaching volunteer roles
Join a dynamic board supporting primary schools in diverse, deprived areas. Use your strategic finance skills to shape the trust’s future, ensure sustainability, and help every child thrive through smart, impactful use of resources.
What will you be doing?
We are seeking a Lead Finance Trustee to join our committed and dynamic board of trustees, working to support primary schools in some of the most socially diverse and economically deprived areas. This is a rewarding opportunity for an experienced and strategically-minded finance professional to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children.
As Lead Finance Trustee, you will play a vital role in shaping the trust’s financial strategy, ensuring long-term sustainability and effective resource allocation. You will use your knowledge of strategic financial management to help oversee budgets, support informed decision-making, and provide robust challenge and assurance to the executive team.
Your expertise will help ensure that public funds are used wisely and transparently, so that every pound spent has a direct, positive impact on pupils. Working closely with other trustees and leaders, you’ll help ensure the trust’s priorities align with its mission to support children in overcoming barriers, reaching their full potential, and thriving at school.
This is an opportunity to apply your skills and values where they truly matter—supporting equity in education and contributing to brighter futures for the next generation.
What are we looking for?
We are looking for a finance professional with the vision, integrity and commitment to contribute meaningfully to the strategic leadership of our trust. As Lead Finance Trustee, you will provide expert guidance and challenge on the trust’s financial sustainability and ensure that public funding is used effectively to support the best possible outcomes for children.
You should bring:
- Proven experience in strategic financial leadership, ideally at board or senior management level, within a public, private or charitable sector organisation
- A strong understanding of financial reporting, budgeting, risk management, and long-term financial planning
- The ability to interpret complex financial information and communicate it clearly to non-financial colleagues
- A track record of constructive challenge and oversight, with sound judgement and a strategic mindset
While experience in education is not essential, an understanding of public sector funding, academy trust structures, or governance in a regulated environment would be advantageous.
You will also bring the following personal qualities:
- A commitment to educational equality and improving life chances for children in disadvantaged communities
- Independence of thought, professional curiosity, and a willingness to challenge assumptions in the best interests of pupils
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively within a diverse and values-driven board
- Integrity, discretion, and a deep sense of accountability for public resources
This voluntary role is ideal for someone who wants to apply their financial expertise to a cause that matters. You’ll play a key part in helping us deliver sustainable, high-impact education for children who need it most.
What difference will you make?
As Lead Finance Trustee, your influence will reach far beyond balance sheets.
You will ensure that financial decisions directly translate into better outcomes for children, particularly those facing disadvantage. By applying your expertise, you’ll help the trust allocate resources effectively—supporting high-quality teaching, inclusive learning environments, and targeted interventions where they’re needed most.
Your strategic oversight will:
- Strengthen the trust’s financial resilience, enabling it to adapt and grow sustainably
- Guarantee that public funds are used transparently and in the best interests of children
- Help shape long-term goals that reflect the needs of diverse, underserved communities
- Provide assurance to stakeholders, parents, and regulators that the trust’s finances are robust and ethically managed
Ultimately, your role will empower the trust to deliver on its mission: to raise aspirations and improve life chances for every child.
