As the Chair of Trustees, you will be at the heart of Crossroads Care Surrey’s most ambitious period of growth. You will help shape the commercial strategy, hold the senor leadership to account, and ensure they have the governance, confidence and direction to achieve their goals.
To be considered for this role, you will require the following:

Client Interviews: rolling
We welcome and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds. We do not discriminate on the basis of disability, race, colour, ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation, age, veteran status, or other category protected by law.
The Organisation
Family Fund is the UK’s largest charity supporting low-income families raising disabled or seriously ill children and young people.
We help thousands of families every year with essential grants, services and practical support. But we do much more than that. We champion families’ voices, challenge inequality and help shape the conversation on disability, childhood illness and disadvantage.
The Roles
The need for our support has never been greater. Maintaining and growing that support requires us to find ever more creative and innovative ways to increase funding, communicate our work, and strengthen our brand profile so that we can continue to reach the families who need us most. Alongside this, we must ensure we are working efficiently so that every £1 of funding goes further for the benefit of those we support.
Trustees play an active role in governing the charity and are responsible for setting the vision and strategic priorities, while ensuring we comply with all legal, charitable, and financial requirements. We are now seeking two Trustees to join our Board and help shape the next stage of our development and impact.
Trustee – Income Growth
We are seeking a Trustee with the knowledge and experience to help us grow and diversify our income streams across both the Charity and Family Fund Business Services, working seamlessly and efficiently as one Group. We want to maximise the income streams, partnerships, and relationships we already have, while also exploring and moving at pace into new areas that align with our strategy and goals. This will require courage, resolve, and teamwork, and we are seeking a Trustee who can advise and work with us on this exciting journey.
Trustee – Fundraising & Philanthropy
We hope to find a Trustee with experience in major fundraising to advise us on strategies to strengthen and broaden our fundraised income. We want to enhance and grow our core fundraising functions, focusing on individual giving, legacies, and community engagement, to sustain current delivery and unlock new income streams that enable the development of future services and support. We will have clear plans for major donors and high-net-worth individuals, trusts and foundations, and corporate partnerships to build unrestricted and core funding.
For both roles, we are seeking Trustees who can bring thought leadership, constructive challenge, and fresh ideas as we strengthen and diversify our income base by growing existing and developing new income sources across fundraising, philanthropy, government, and commercial ventures.
This is a fantastic opportunity to develop skills and experience while giving back to a nationwide charity that makes a real and practical difference to the lives of families every day.
The Person
We are looking for Trustees who can demonstrate:
We welcome candidates from all backgrounds who have the skills and experience required to be a Trustee. We would particularly encourage applications from people with disabilities or long-term conditions, and from parents or carers of children and young adults with disabilities or serious illnesses, to help bring valuable lived experience and fresh perspectives to our Board.

Join 130 Primrose as a Strategic Finance Trustee. Help an exciting team guide our forecasting, cashflow and scaling plans for a mission where every plate creates a fresh start.
We’re seeking a Trustee with strategic finance (CFO-level) expertise to strengthen our board as we grow and to help us scale our mission to bring economic opportunites to those impacted by homelessness.
You’ll bring commercial acumen to our mission—helping us plan sustainably, understand our unit economics, and scale responsibly—without being “the accountant.” Our operations are hospitality-led, so experience in catering, hospitality, or multi-site venues is helpful (not essential).
About 130 Primrose
130 Primrose is a charity restaurant in Primrose Hill, formerly Home Kitchen Diner. We recruit, train, and employ people with lived experience of homelessness, offering real jobs, and accredited qualifications in hospitality. We’re scaling impact through great food, fair work, and fresh starts.
What you’ll do
· Support the Board and Chair with financial strategy, planning, and risk management.
· Challenge and refine our financial model, forecasting, and cashflow planning (12–36 months).
· Help shape P&L, balance sheet and cash visibility that operators can use day-to-day.
· Advise on site-level unit economics, menu margin mix, labour model, and cost control.
· Strengthen budgeting, KPI dashboards, and scenario modelling for growth (e.g., second site in Brighton).
· Support funding strategy: grants, philanthropy, corporate partnerships, social investment.
· Create a Finance & Risk Committee (chair if appropriate).
· Ensure robust governance, internal controls, and compliance with charity and company law.
· Act as a critical friend—asking the right questions, mentoring our leadership and on site General Manager and team, and championing our mission.
We’re not looking for
· A bookkeeper or day-to-day accountant. We want a strategic finance leader who can translate numbers into decisions and coach an operations-minded team.
TO RELIEVE THE CHARITABLE NEEDS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE LIVED EXPERIENCE OF HOMELESSNESS, WHO ARE HOMELESS, OR AT RISK OF HOMELESSNESS.

Second Life
We partner with communities to collect, trace, and recycle plastic, creating jobs and preventing pollution.

As demand for credible, traceable plastic action accelerates, driven by Extended Producer Responsibility regulation, voluntary ESG commitments, and consumer expectations, companies are actively seeking partners like us. Your job is to find them, qualify them, and walk them through to signed partnerships.
You'll own the full commercial cycle: identifying corporate prospects (cosmetics, FMCG, food & beverage, retail, travel), running outreach and discovery, designing the right project proposal with the help of our CEO, negotiating commercial terms, and closing.
This is a high-autonomy role for someone who genuinely cares about environmental impact and knows how to translate that into a commercial conversation.
What you'll do:
- Build and manage a qualified pipeline of corporate partners across target sectors and geographies (Europe, North America, APAC)
- Run outbound outreach via LinkedIn, email, warm introductions, and partner referrals to sustainability, procurement, packaging, and CSR leaders.
- Lead discovery calls and partner workshops; understand each company's plastic footprint, regulatory exposure, and sustainability strategy.
- Work with our operations and technical team to scope tailored projects: collection volumes, geographies, traceability requirements, co-branding opportunities.
- Build commercial proposals, and contracts
- Stay sharp on the competitive landscape: plastic credits standards (Verra, others), EPR regulation in key markets, and emerging buyer expectations.
Why join us
- Sell something with real, verifiable impact: every contract translates directly into plastic removed and livelihoods supported

Whether you’re a jobseeker interested in a career in construction or woodwork, a student or recent college graduate seeking experience, or just someone with spare time on your hands, wanting to do something positive and meet new people, volunteering with the Touch Wood project at EMERGE 3Rs may be just the ticket!
Touch Wood is a wood recycling and upcycling initiative, which collects surplus and waste wood and timber and gives it a new lease of life, preventing it from being burned, chipped, or dumped in landfill.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
* Preparing wood for resale
* Assisting with the construction of wooden products, from small household items to pieces of furniture
Our Touch Wood volunteers are able to gain skills in practical woodworking, as we offer hands-on experience of working with reclaimed timber; from making basic lumber products ready for resale, through to assisting with the creation of bespoke items, such as kitchen equipment and home and garden furniture.
Full training in woodworking and health and safety is provided, along with Personal Protection Equipment.
Capped reimbursement of expenses is awarded for lunches and travel, where applicable.
The UK generates around 5 million tonnes of wood waste every year, but less than 1% is reused. Touch Wood rescues waste timber that would otherwise be landfilled or turned into woodchip; creating jobs and training opportunities for disadvantaged local people at the same time. We collect from construction sites, industrial estates and other commercial sources, reclaiming everything from pallets to indoor cycle tracks – you name it, we take it! Anything we can’t reuse is locally recycled, so nothing goes to waste. This reduces the carbon emissions associated with disposing of waste wood, offers cost savings for DIY enthusiasts, and provides training and job potential to volunteers in the workshop. Some of the timber we work with comes from high profile sources, including the entire track of the Manchester Velodrome cycling centre and wood removed in the recent refurbishment of Manchester’s historic Town Hall!
Our skilled team of staff and volunteers often use reclaimed timber to create beautiful and practical products, such as home and garden furniture. We regularly create bespoke pieces to order; some of it for famous clients like Olympic cycling champions Jason and Laura Kenny, for whom we made a table from the Manchester Velodrome track.
Please be advised that our volunteers require a fair level of physical fitness and manual dexterity as the role is entirely practical.
Our Touch Wood workshop and wood store is open Mon-Fri, 8.30am - 4pm.
We occupy a unit at Maynard House, inside New Smithfield Market, in Openshaw, North Manchester, which is accessed from the main entrance on Whitworth Street East (off Ashton Old Road). The site is served well by buses, and we have free parking onsite, as well as secure storage racks for pushbikes.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
You must be resident in the UK and living in Greater Manchester, or within easy commuting distance of our base, in order to volunteer with us. There are no exceptions to this rule. This is because we require volunteers to be able to reliably commit to regular shifts for some of our roles. We are unable to offer sponsorship for overseas applicants.
Know someone else who might be interested in volunteering with us?
Please pass our details on to them as we always welcome new people on our teams. :)
