Global Charities Trustee Role Vacancy
Grant-making and Impact measurements specialism
Role Description
INTRODUCTION
Global Charities (operating name Global’s Make Some Noise) is the official charity of Global, the UK and Europe’s largest Radio and Outdoor company. The Charity brings Global staff and the Global’s amazing brands together to create incredible change for communities right across the UK.
Since 2014, Make Some Noise (MSN) has raised more than £43 million, changed more than 248,000 lives and additionally reached more than 603,000 people through over 755 projects across the UK.
We are seeking an experienced, values-driven and analytically strong individual to join our Board of Trustees, with a particular focus on grant-making, impact measurement and an understanding of diverse and marginalised communities.
You will bring rigorous judgement and constructive challenge to Board discussions, helping to ensure our grant-making decisions are robust and evidence-led, and that the charity maximises its impact for beneficiaries across the UK. This is an exceptional opportunity to use your expertise in support of communities facing some of life's toughest challenges.
GLOBAL’S MAKE SOME NOISE
Global’s Make Some Noise utilises the power and reach of Global’s platforms, talent, and client base to raise vital funds and awareness for the charities we support. We also work closely with Global staff 'Globallers’, to tap into their skills and experience, which allows us to build meaningful training and development opportunities for our small charities and maximise the partnership, events and on-air fundraising opportunities.
We align with Global’s proposition of “national brands delivered locally”, so that we are relevant to audiences in terms of both raising money and supporting local projects. We also align with Global’s culture of Making Everyone’s Day Brighter and work closely across the business to maximise the opportunities under this shared vision.
The Charity works closely with individual radio brands to develop fundraising strategies relevant to their audiences and commercial clients. We continue to focus on growing brand awareness of Global’s Make Some Noise and to innovate our various fundraising streams in order to support small charities that are in need of financial help and align with the Charity’s strategy.
Global’s Make Some Noise actively supports around 100 charities a year, in communities across the UK. These charities are small (under £1million in revenue) but high in impact, and provide critical help for some of the most vulnerable in our society.
We run 3 programmes to build sustainability in small charities:
· An awareness programme to generate much needed publicity and support
· A grants programme to fund vital services and equipment
· A learning and development programme to help upskill charities
Our mission is to ensure that nobody in the UK is left facing life’s toughest challenges alone. We deliver that mission through four key pillars :
· Providing shelter and safety; A safe home is essential, yet millions of people don’t live in one. We work with small charities that exist to support those who have no option but to live on the streets, in temporary accommodation or in unsafe or overcrowded houses.
· Supporting physical and mental health; We fund crucial services to ensure people can access the support they need to feel well. This includes funding hospice and care services, mental health helplines, respite support for people with disabilities and their families, and food banks for those living in poverty.
· Improving life skills; We’re supporting programmes that are dedicated to improving people’s life skills and future opportunities. This includes helping people get the education they need, upskilling them for the future, providing access to wellbeing support, and supporting them into employment.
· Preventing isolation; We recognise how vital it is for people to be connected so we fund crucial projects that prevent isolation. These include community projects that bring people together to build a sense of belonging, as well providing access to devices that support connections and digital skills training.
Our 2025 fundraising appeal for Global’s Make Some Noise raised a record-breaking £4.8million for communities across the UK. You can find out more about our impact here: https://cdn.sanity.io/files/lvz0au6x/production/e2f407d31e35d28769be5008efd248bbdb68f44c.pdf

Company Description
We would love you to join us in being part of the Durrell team.
As a leading conservation organisation, we have an important job in saving species from extinction and creating a wilder, healthier, more colourful world.
It takes a great team to save wildlife and we need a wide range of skills to make it happen. Everyone at Durrell plays their part – whether they deliver conservation initiatives, engage with our supporters, promote our brand, or look after our people.
Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust is an international conservation charity, headquartered at Jersey Zoo in the Channel Islands, working to save species from extinction through "intensive care" breeding of threatened species across the globe, rewilding of ecosystems, and the training of the next generation of conservation heroes. Durrell leads some of the world’s longest running and most successful species and habitat recovery programmes.
Established by author and conservationist Gerald Durrell in 1959, Durrell’s aim is for more diverse and resilient natural landscapes in which species can thrive and people can enjoy a deeper connection with nature.
Durrell delivers its conservation mission through our three integrated core areas of operation:
•Field Programmes: conservation action where it is needed most.
•Conservation Knowledge: training future conservation practitioners, enabling people to more closely connect with nature, delivering the science guiding Durrell’s mission and measuring our impacts.
•Jersey Zoo: a centre of excellence in animal husbandry, research, training, and education.
With a track record of more than 50 years, Durrell leads some of the world’s longest running and most successful species and habitat recovery programmes. The quality of our work is equally as important as how we deliver it. Our values underpin how we approach our work and the work environment we create.
Position
Durrell is looking to recruit three Trustees with skills in:
(i)Human Resources
(ii)Legal
(iii)Public Affairs Communications
The positions will report to the Board Chair.
Volunteering as a trustee is a rewarding opportunity to use your skills, experience and insight to make a meaningful difference, shaping strategies that protect biodiversity and becoming part of an impactful conservation institution.
Trustees attend Board meetings held quarterly in Jersey. We value the depth of connection that comes from meeting in person, while recognising the importance of flexibility through virtual attendance.

·Help shape the future, contributing your insight and judgement to strategic decisions that guide the charity’s direction and impact.
·Provide thoughtful oversight, supporting the responsible and effective use of resources.
·Be a powerful advocate, championing the charity’s work, purpose and values and helping extend its reach within the community.
This is an opportunity to step back from day‑to‑day delivery and contribute at a strategic level, offering challenge, encouragement and guidance, while being part of a committed board united by a shared belief in Durrell’s work.
If you would like to support our mission and vital conservation work, then we would love to hear from you.
