We are looking for candidates who are excited by the opportunity to work with a small and innovative charity and who share our passion for the work. You’d be joining an already incredibly engaged board of a growing organisation.
Role: Trustee, in particular trustees with a legal or HR background.
Remuneration: This is an unpaid role, reasonable out of pocket expenses will be covered.
Duration: Trustees stand for terms of three years, with the chance to be re-elected for a further two consecutive terms of three years.

Start: ASAP
What does the role of Trustee look like?
The role of Trustee is a rewarding, engaging, decision making one where you get to make a real difference, using your skills and experience to help our charity create as much impact as we can.
You will join a dedicated board of trustees who are ultimately responsible for the governance and finances of the charity, working together to make sure that the charity’s resources are used effectively to achieve its aims.
Board meetings allow the trustees to come together to fulfill their legal obligations, as stated in the Memorandum and Articles of Association. We don’t expect you to necessarily be familiar with the ins and outs of these obligations - we will provide you with support and training to navigate your responsibilities. The CEO and Executive Team are responsible for updating and providing the necessary information to the trustees to enable them to make their decisions.
Trustees are not expected to be experts in every aspect of the running of Heard, this is why we have dedicated employees to provide information to the trustees and specialist trustees such as our treasurer who has the financial expertise to guide the trustees when it comes to the accounts.
Our trustees also have the opportunity to sit on sub-committees depending on their areas of interest. Our sub-committees are currently Social Affairs, Finance and Human Resources.
About Heard:
Heard is a charity working with people and the media to inspire content and communication that changes hearts and minds.
We all know that being heard matters. On a fundamental level, good communication means being heard and feeling heard. And good communication is transformative. It can shift perspectives, and move conversations – and society – forward.
Therefore, in a world that can feel loud, divided and awash with misunderstanding, our work is making sure we can hear each other.
It’s about finding common ground on big, important issues. Connecting people. Growing understanding. Check out our core programmes focussed on issues such as climate change, poverty, domestic abuse, transgender experiences, migration and children’s palliative care.
Our name also reflects how we centre and support people whose stories need to be heard at scale. You can read more about what we do at Heard on our website.
Nina (current Co-chair) says “I know how challenging it can be to make a reality of narrative change, and I find it immensely rewarding to be a small part of Heard’s impactful storytelling work”.
We are committed to providing equal opportunities for everyone regardless of their background or age. We are particularly keen to receive applications from Black, Asian and minority ethnic people; people with disabilities (visible and invisible, mental and physical); people who identify as being LGBTQ; and people who identify as working-class or have done so in the past.
