The Vacancy

Do you have a keen interest in current affairs and want to bring your experience of the Methodist Church to support its involvement in ecumenical social justice, policy and political work?

The Joint Public Issues Team (JPIT) is a partnership between the Baptist, Methodist and United Reformed Churches. It help the Churches to work together for peace and justice through listening, learning, praying, speaking and acting on public policy issues.

We are now searching for a new Methodist member of the Strategy and Policy Group (SPG) which oversees the team’s work, and facilitates the working together of the denominations to achieve JPIT’s purposes.

The SPG currently holds five meetings a year, comprising one 24-hour residential with the whole staff team, two half-day hybrid meetings (where members are on site together in London or online), and two shorter online-only meetings.

About You

As one of two Methodist members of SPG, you’ll contribute to the discussions and decision-making of the group, and collectively support JPIT in effectively enabling the Churches to speak and act prophetically and prayerfully on key issues of justice and peace. You’ll need to bring strong understanding and experience of the Methodist Church in Britain, through both local involvement and experience of district or Connexional structures.

This is a rewarding opportunity to play a significant role in the public witness and justice work of the Methodist Church, working with ecumenical colleagues. You are encouraged to apply if you feel that overall your skills and experience meet the person specification requirements. We particularly welcome applications from people of Black, Asian and other Minority Ethnic groups (BAME), as they are currently under-represented within the SPG.

Our purpose is to provide funding to relieve the burden of financial, physical and emotional hardship in our local community of Hampton, Teddington, Twickenham and Whitton.

The perception of Richmond Upon Thames as a wealthy borough masks high levels of need and disadvantage. That means that support for those in need locally rarely comes from outside the borough which in turn means the work of local funders and voluntary sector organisations, like Hampton Fund, is critical.  Our endowment of £60m+ enables us to make grants to both individuals and community organisations of £2m-£2.5m pa.

What are we looking for?

We are looking for someone with a good current knowledge of social care infrastructure and systems across either the statutory or voluntary sector, or both. This could, for example, be in the areas of cost-of-living support, health, social work or children’s services.

It is expected that Trustees will either live, work or have another connection to our area of benefit. It is not necessary to have previous board committee experience as training will be provided.

Location: Meetings take place Trust’s Head Office at Parsons Court, Newton Aycliffe; The Greenhouse, Annfield Plain, Stanley, Co Durham 

Closing date: Monday 3rd November

Who we are

For over three decades, Groundwork North East & Cumbria has stood for environmental sustainability and social impact. Our work spans five strategic growth areas: nature-based solutions that restore biodiversity and tackle flooding; youth employment programmes that provide skills and pathways into green careers; green teams and land management that transform neglected spaces; health and wellbeing initiatives that connect people with nature; and energy efficiency programmes that tackle fuel poverty while reducing carbon emissions.

Our mission is simple but profound: create better places, improve people’s prospects, and promote greener lifestyles. We believe that within every community, however disadvantaged, there is deep pride, resilience, and potential. Our role is to harness that pride and unlock that passion, delivering projects and programmes that not only change lives now but also make our communities more sustainable, inclusive, and resilient for the future.

As part of the Groundwork Federation, we are uniquely positioned as an environmental and community-focused charity dedicated to creating thriving places where people and nature flourish together. We work across both urban and rural communities throughout North East England and Cumbria to tackle inequalities, address climate and nature challenges, and empower individuals to improve their lives, neighbourhoods, and local economies.

We deliver outcomes that matter: energy-saving advice to thousands of households, targeted employment and youth programmes, landscape design and environmental restoration, community food growing projects, and nature-based solutions that benefit both people and wildlife. Through our Greenhouse Business Centre and Land of Oak & Iron Heritage Centre, we also operate successful social enterprises that generate income to reinvest in our charitable work.

About the role

We are seeking an exceptional leader to chair our Board of Trustees as we embark on our ambitious five-year strategy with our goal to achieve net-zero by 2030 while transforming lives region-wide. This is a pivotal moment in our journey, and we need someone who can guide us through this transformational phase.

As Chair, you will work closely with our Chief Executive, Steve Roberts and fellow Trustees to ensure the Trust fulfils its charitable objectives, maintains strong stakeholder trust, and delivers on our strategic ambitions. You will lead 4-6 board meetings annually, foster board development, and represent Groundwork externally as our ambassador.

The role involves ensuring robust governance standards, overseeing financial sustainability, and maintaining effective risk management frameworks. You will serve as a trusted advisor to the executive team, offering strategic counsel while ensuring clear boundaries between governance and executive management.

Who we are looking for

We need a Chair who genuinely understands what good governance looks like and can help us maintain the highest standards while supporting our ambitious growth plans. You will have demonstrable experience in senior leadership or governance roles, bringing strategic vision and the natural ability to facilitate constructive board discussions that drive real outcomes.

More than technical expertise, we are looking for someone who can inspire others and build relationships across diverse stakeholders. You will have natural leadership presence and the confidence to represent Groundwork externally with authenticity. Your diplomatic and empathetic communication style will enable meaningful engagement with people from all backgrounds, from local communities to government ministers.

We seek someone who can create an inclusive board culture where every voice is heard and valued. You will be skilled at fostering cohesion among trustees while ensuring collective accountability for our performance and impact.

Above all, we need someone who shares our genuine passion for environmental and social justice. You will have a heartfelt commitment to creating a more sustainable and inclusive society where communities can thrive. Whether through direct lived experience or professional background, you understand the challenges facing disadvantaged communities and believe in the transformative power of local action.

• Time commitment

The time commitment includes preparation for and attendance at quarterly board meetings, committee work, and external representation as appropriate. You will also spend time building relationships with fellow trustees and the executive team between formal meetings. Usually, the Chair of Groundwork North East & Cumbria sits on Groundwork UK’s Federation Board, which meets four times a year.

Many previous Chairs describe the experience as deeply rewarding, offering the opportunity to make a meaningful difference while developing leadership skills and building relationships with diverse professional and civic leaders.
