Easy Housing Association (EHA) is a mission-driven Registered Social Landlord (RSL), committed to delivering safe, secure, and affordable homes for those who need them most. We are strengthening our Board of Trustees at an important moment for the organisation, and are seeking experienced, strategic individuals to join us across four specialist areas: supported housing operations, finance and viability, governance and charity law, and health & safety/compliance.
As a trustee, you will provide high level oversight, advise, challenge, and support EHA's leadership, and help us meet our legal obligations, protect tenant wellbeing, and maintain long-term sustainability, including through the regulatory improvement work set out below.
About Easy Housing Association and the Current Regulatory Position
Easy Housing Association (EHA) is a registered provider of social housing, regulated by the Regulator of Social Housing (RSH). In July 2025, RSH issued an Enforcement Notice concluding that EHA had not met the Governance and Financial Viability Standard and required EHA to commission an independent appraisal and deliver a board-approved action plan to address the issues identified.
As part of this process, RSH has made statutory appointments to EHA's Board to strengthen governance capacity, and EHA is separately recruiting an Interim Manager with statutory powers under the Enforcement Notice. EHA is committed to full transparency with RSH and to delivering the improvements required.
We are recruiting additional Non-Executive Directors as part of this strengthening of the Board. This is a genuine opportunity to bring specialist expertise to an organisation actively working through a defined improvement journey, with the backing and support of an engaged, RSH-appointed board and executive team. Candidates should be comfortable operating in a regulated, enforcement environment and bring the independence and rigour that context requires.
Time commitment
Trustees are expected to attend monthly board meetings (approximately 2.5 hours online) and commit an additional 4 hours per month to board-related duties, including reading papers, joining sub-committees, or contributing expertise.
What you’ll gain
EHA is proud to be an inclusive and tenant-focused RSL. We welcome applications from individuals of all backgrounds especially those with lived experience of social housing.

Non‑Executive Status: This is a non‑executive, governance‑only role. The postholder provides oversight and assurance but does not participate in operational management.
Purpose: Strengthen governance, regulatory compliance, and charity law oversight, ensuring EHA meets RSH and Charity Commission expectations.
This role directly supports EHA's governance improvement work, including its response to an ongoing Charity Commission matter, and requires a candidate comfortable providing rigorous, independent challenge.
Core Responsibilities:
· Provide assurance on governance frameworks, CC11, conflicts, and probity
· Support Board effectiveness, succession planning, and compliance
· Advise on charity law, constitutional matters, and regulatory reporting
· Strengthen oversight of policies, delegations, and decision‑making

Our vision is locked, our digital assets are buzzing, and our community is ready. Now, we need our operational anchor.

About the Role
ILP has a 13-member Board, with members based in the UK, Spain, Kenya and the USA. Successful candidates will be joining a collegial team with a wide range of expertise in the thematic areas of ILP’s work and experience in charity governance.
ILP is a growing and ambitious organisation, with its budget more than doubling in size over the course of the last few years. Currently with a budget of approximately £500,000 and an additional £6 million value mobilised in pro bono hours, we are looking for a trustee and ultimately a Chair who is able to support the team as the organisation continues to grow and move to the next level.
Successful candidates will be appointed initially as an ordinary Trustee. The term of the current Chair comes to an end in mid-2027. Shortly before then the Board will decide on the appointment of a new Chair, with the expectation that the successful candidate will be elected from the Board in accordance with the Articles of Association.
The key responsibilities of Board members are to ensure that the organisation has a clear strategy for the fulfilment of its charitable purposes, and to provide oversight of and support to the executive team, in accordance with the Articles of Association and the guidance on governance obligations established by the Charity Commission.
In addition to these general obligations the Board Chair’s key responsibilities are to:
Provide leadership to the Board of Trustees in oversight of the strategic direction and execution of the governance responsibilities of the Charity.
Chair and facilitate meetings of the Board (hybrid meetings held from ILP’s London office), ensuring that they are conducted in an effective and inclusive manner and monitoring the implementation of decisions taken at such meetings.
Support ILP’s Executive Director in leading the day-to-day management of the Charity and preparing for Board meetings.
Take lead responsibility on behalf of the Board for the relationship with ILP’s Executive Director, appraising their performance and holding him or her to account.
Give direction to Board policy making.
Act as an ambassador for the Charity, representing its strategy and contribution to its partners and funders.
Plan for the recruitment and development of Board members as needed in order to improve the performance of the Board.
Term of Office: Trustees are appointed for a 3 year term, serving a maximum of 3 consecutive terms.
Expected Time Commitment: Variable, but up to two days a month as Board Chair. Ordinary trustees attend four two-hour Board meetings annually, for which moderate background reading is required, and may be requested to assist with other contributions.
Compensation: This is a volunteer role, but reasonable expenses will be reimbursed.
Specification for Board Chair
Experience serving on the Board of one or more other registered UK charities.
Understanding of the Charity Commission’s governance requirements, and the balance of roles between governance and management.
Willingness to devote the necessary time and effort to support the charity.
Professional background related to ILP’s thematic areas of focus and familiarity with the non-profit sector working in an international context.
Commitment to ILP’s strategic objectives.
Good communication and people management skills and strong independent judgement.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
