Location: Hybrid / Wembley Stadium
Applications close: 9 a.m. Friday 27th February 2026
About Wembley Stadium Foundation
Wembley Stadium Foundation is entering an exciting new chapter. As the independent charity of Wembley Stadium, we use the power of one of the world’s most iconic venues to inspire, connect and transform communities.
Funded directly through stadium event income, we invest in sport, movement and performing arts, helping young people overcome barriers and unlocking opportunities that last a lifetime.
Whether supporting grassroots football, funding performing arts programmes, or providing equipment and access for young people with disabilities, our grants create opportunities that last.
We are committed to collaboration, working closely with local partners, national organisations and grantees to amplify impact sustainably. With a refreshed strategy to 2028, a growing profile and a new CEO appointed in 2024, we are entering a period of renewed clarity and ambition.
Our aim is to ensure the magic of Wembley reaches far beyond the stadium walls, touching communities across Brent and throughout the UK.
About the roles
Following a period of cultural reset and strengthened governance, we are now seeking exceptional trustees to help shape the Foundation’s future. This is a rare opportunity to bring strategic leadership, governance experience and sector insight to an organisation with national reach, financial stability and the growing ambition to maximise its impact ahead of Euro 2028.
Who we are looking for
We are seeking four new trustees who combine governance maturity with a strong connection to our mission. You do not need to have served as a trustee before, but you must bring senior leadership experience, sound judgment and the ability to support an evolving board as it moves into a more confident, professional and high-performing phase.
We particularly welcome individuals with experience in:
- Governance and strategic leadership
- Sport governance and football
- Arts, culture and performing arts
- HR, marketing, communications
- Senior operational, commercial, or organisational leadership
We are also looking for trustees who can bring board-level behaviours: constructive challenge, collaborative mindset, calm leadership through change and the ability to focus discussions on strategy, risk and impact.
You will be mission-focused and comfortable operating in a charity undergoing governance strengthening, cultural renewal and increased visibility. You’ll understand that while Wembley is an iconic and exciting brand, trusteeship is not about perks; it is about responsibility, scrutiny and ensuring funds reach the right communities for the greatest impact.
Our board is diverse and welcoming, but it requires greater depth of senior experience. We encourage applications from individuals who can model strong governance, champion inclusive practice and help build a board that is effective, future-focused and ready to shape the next era of Wembley Stadium Foundation’s impact.
Peridot Partners and Wembley Stadium Foundation 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.

Greater Manchester Moving is a leading Greater Manchester charity which exists to change lives through movement, physical activity and sport. This drives everything that we do and motivates every single person engaged with our organisation.
We lead, support and connect people and partners across our brilliant city-region to enable Active Lives for All, uniting communities and creating more equal and inclusive places so that people can lead happier, healthier and more fulfilled lives.
Nationally, we are one of 42 Active Partnerships. Together, we work to create the conditions for an active nation. We work closely with Sport England to support the local implementation of the Uniting the Movement Strategy.
We are seeking to appoint an exceptional leader to serve as Chair of our Board. The successful candidate will provide inclusive, values-led leadership and strategic direction, uphold the highest standards of governance and financial oversight, and drive the growth of the charity’s value and impact.
As an ambassador and advocate, the Chair will champion the transformative benefits of movement, physical activity, and sport, foster strong relationships with partners and stakeholders, and promote equality, equity, diversity, and inclusion.
The role requires a commitment to nurturing an already high-performing Board, modelling integrity and accountability, and ensuring the charity operates in line with its values, regulatory responsibilities, and the Seven Principles of Public Life (Nolan Principles).
The Chair will work in close partnership with the Chief Executive, offering support, providing constructive challenge, and holding the executive leadership to account in delivering the charity’s objectives.
We are an organisation guided by our core values of passion, integrity, and purpose. We acknowledge and champion the advantages of a diverse and inclusive Board, and view enhancing diversity and inclusivity at the Board level as a vital factor in achieving our goals and objectives.
As an organisation we believe we should be reflective of the people within our communities and as such we encourage applications from underrepresented groups who can strengthen our already talented and committed Board.
If you are seeking a role that is inspirational, developmental and one which can make a difference to the lives of people in Greater Manchester, then we would love to hear from you.
The recruitment pack (which includes the role profile and person specification), application form and equal opportunities monitoring form are available to download from our website.
Greater Manchester Moving is GM’s movement for movement working together to positively change the lives of people across Greater Manchester.
