About Nacro

We provide practical help and personalised support through our education, housing, education, justice, and health and well-being services. We work closely with people to help them build independence and to move forward to a better future. We’re compassionate and strong, determined and flexible. And we never give up on people.

At Nacro, we fundamentally believe that everyone deserves a good education, a safe and secure place to live, a chance to be heard and the chance to start again.

In our classrooms, in our homes and in our support groups we see the potential. We see the desire to take a different path, and we support thousands of people to get back on their feet, believe in themselves, stay out of trouble, get a job, get a home, start a family, be the person they want to be.

We are incredibly proud of what we offer, how we offer it, and of the students who choose Nacro and progress with us.

About the role

As a member of the Nacro Trustee Board, your contribution to the strategic direction of our national charity will be welcomed. Through sharing your experience, expertise, and knowledge, you will – collectively with other Trustees – hold the Executive Leadership Team to account for the performance of the charity and the successful delivery of our strategy.

Working collaboratively with other Trustees and our Executive Leadership Team, you will help us set, maintain, and uphold Nacro’s vision, mission, and strategy, ensuring that we are governed efficiently and effectively and in accordance with the law, our objectives and governing documents, relevant regulatory, and funding requirements.

As a Trustee, you will uphold the principles of good governance, aligned with the Trustee Code of Conduct, whilst promoting the values of Nacro.

As a Trustee Board, we support the leadership team in providing people with the help they need. By becoming a Trustee, you will have the opportunity to help us achieve our vision of a society where everyone has the chance to succeed, where a safe, secure home, a decent education, and a second chance are the foundations on which we can all build our lives.

Who we are looking for

We seek someone who can become a Trustee of Nacro and contribute to our Education Committee. The Education Committee acts as the de facto governing body for our Education & Skills Directorate.

The person appointed to this role will act as the Education Safeguarding Lead on our Board of Trustees, working with our other Safeguarding Leads from across the charity.

We seek a candidate with strategic experience in education and/or children’s services. As a large charity with a turnover of almost £100m, operating across the country, and with further growth planned, it feels important for the person appointed to bring experience of strategic leadership at scale.

Having an understanding of the services Nacro provides and the importance of the type of education and training we deliver is vital. Whilst we might not be able to change the world, we can certainly aim to change the world around each one of our students studying in our Education & Skills Centres.

We are actively seeking to increase the diversity of our Board and encourage applicants with a broad range of backgrounds and experience.

Peridot Partners and Nacro are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and our client expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful candidate will be subject to an enhanced DBS check and satisfactory references before any final offer can be made.

Applications for this role close at 9 a.m. Monday 9th June 2025.
