Re-Vision is a small charity based in Queen’s Park, London, founded in 1988. We run professionally accredited part-time courses for adults to train as Counsellors and Psychotherapists and are looking for Trustees to join our Board.
Who we are
Re-Vision is a registered charity. It is a small, not for profit counselling and psychotherapy training organisation providing outstanding, in-depth training with a soulful perspective. We also offer a low cost community counselling service to enable access to mental health services for those who might otherwise not find this affordable.
The role
We are juggling a number of important strategic imperatives. We have highlighted the need to improve resilience, to look ahead at future plans for our physical environment, to continue to provide an inclusive and rewarding experience for our students, trainers and staff, to maintain and build on the unique soulfulness and richness of our training, and to build our bursary fund to help to increase accessibility to our training.
We are keen to find trustees willing to help us with these challenges. We are particularly keen to involve people with financial or marketing skills, and people who have been involved in facilitating or helping small organisations faced with the challenge of retaining core values during periods of change. This is an exciting period of change for Re-Vision and could be a good time for those with experience in strategic planning or change management to get involved, even if only for a fixed term.
We are currently looking to recruit Trustees with experience in:
- Finance and financial strategies – able to contribute to scrutiny of financial information, understand accounts and budgets.
- Diversity and inclusion policy and implementation
- Marketing and website expertise
- Facilities and property management
- Strategic planning or change management experience would be desirable
You might have previous non-exec or trustee experience, or you might be looking for your first Board/Trustee role, possibly as you think about moving on to paid non-exec roles in the future. Whatever your situation, you will be keen to make an important contribution by supporting a really worthwhile organisation. You will care about understanding our culture and values and enjoy the challenge of helping this organisation continue to thrive.
We believe this is an exciting opportunity for individuals with a strongly held belief in the benefits that empowering leadership skills can have in shaping the future of the next generation.
We are looking for individuals that can promote our cause and are willing to share their personal and professional experience and insights as part of the collaborative decision-making of our Board of Trustees.
We are committed to diversity in the workplace through a workforce that reflects the population and communities we work with across the UK.
Our board of Trustees is currently under-represented by individuals with black, asian, and ethnically diverse heritage in addition to people aged under 30 years of age.
As such, we would welcome applicants with these backgrounds to support our aim of a nationally representative organisation workforce.
Knowledge, skills and experience
While we are interested in the person, we are looking for individuals with specific skills and experience in one, some, or all of the following areas:
o Working with primary and/or secondary schools, colleges, and/or youth-development organisations.
o Working in or with Awarding Organisations.
An understanding or experience of financial oversight is considered desirable but not essential.
Trustee commitment and responsibilities
All Trustee positions are voluntary with reasonable expenses remunerated.
To be an effective Trustee, you will need to commit approximately 1-2 days per quarter to attend and prepare for board meetings which are generally held virtually.
Members of our Audit, Risk and Compliance committee additionally meet two weeks before each board meeting for finance and regulation focused discussions with the Executive team.
Effective Trustees support our work by:
· Ensuring we are working towards our vision, mission and values in everything we do.
· Supporting strategic decision-making by actively contributing advice, guidance, and opinion in the pursuit of the organisation’s objectives.
· Constructively guide the Executive in the delivery of the organisation’s strategy.
· Actively represent and champion the work of the Leadership Skills Foundation.
· Maintaining proper financial and regulatory oversight promoting best practice as a Charity to ensure our sustainability and longevity.
Our values
Created in collaboration with the Leadership Skills Foundation team, our cultural values are our ways of working that we expect in all aspects of our interaction with each other and with our delivery centres, tutors, partners, and learners.
-
We are better together
Together, we do great things. Collaboration, belonging and individuality aren’t just buzzwords to us; they’re deeply held commitments in the way we work. As we solve problems together, we make sure everyone feels listened to and valued.
-
We are guided by goals
Every initiative we developed is guided by clear aims. From giving young people the confidence to achieve, to bringing major change to communities, all our goals are significant and focused on improvement.
-
We evolve and innovate
As the world changes, so do the opportunities and challenges of the people we support. As different times call for different skills, we are brave enough to be different and to innovate to be fit for the future.
-
We have pride in our programmes
We never forget how valuable everyone’s future is. That’s why we go above and beyond to deliver high-quality trustworthy and regulated programmes.
