Vanesa (CEO)

This is an exciting time to join the Endometriosis UK trustee board, as the organisation expands and develops to achieve the changes that are needed to support those affected by the disease and to drive down diagnosis time. We are looking for a new Treasurer to build on this momentum to strengthen our organisation and bring about change for those with endometriosis. We have a skills-based board, with Trustees having one or more identified skills, with the overall membership of the Board providing the complete set of skills. 

Endometriosis UK is the largest UK charity for those with endometriosis. Endometriosis UK works to:

• Provide support to those with endometriosis and their families and friends

• Provide clear, objective information about the condition and its treatments

• Raise awareness amongst health professionals and the general public about the condition

• Support research into endometriosis.

This is an unpaid role. Reasonable pre-agreed travel expenses will be paid.

Time commitment:

• Five meetings a year, including preparation for meetings, reading papers etc; and attendance at an annual strategy day and AGM (held on the same days as Board meetings).

• Trustees have the opportunity to take part in Board sub-groups and project groups to develop aspects of the organisations’ work. Current sub-groups include the Finance Committee and Diversity & Inclusion Sub-Group. Trustees are also invited to attend Endometriosis UK events.

We are recruiting for one new treasurer to join the board. We are particularly looking for:

• Personal or professional experience of diversity and inclusion issues

• Marketing and digital marketing

• Communications and social media

• Campaigning and achieving change

• Experience of working in Primary Care

• Charity finance experience

• Currently living in Northern Ireland, Scotland or Wales

Personal experience of living with, or having a close family member with, endometriosis, is vital on our Board. Whilst we look favourably on applications from those in the endometriosis community, we already have Trustees with first hand lived experience and new trustees do not need to have endometriosis. 

We also particularly welcome applications from trustees from a range of backgrounds and experiences as part of our commitment to diversity.

The role will start at a Board meeting on 28th November 2026, when our current Treasurer reaches the end of their 6-year term of office. Prior to the roles starting, the incoming Treasurer will have the opportunity to observe a Board meeting in September, and induction will be planned in October.

Closing date for applications – 9th June 2026

Interviews will be held in June/July, with initial interviews being held virtually on request, carried out by a small panel of trustees.

About Mudland

Mudland operates at the intersection of climate, culture, and global systems.
We work with organisations navigating complex regions and emerging markets, helping them build credible presence through narrative, partnerships, and local intelligence.
Our current focus includes:

• Climate and energy transition (including hydrogen and future fuels)
• Global South markets (India, Himalayan region, beyond)
• Institutional partnerships and strategic positioning

We are now building the foundation to evolve into a high-value strategic advisory and partnerships studio.

Why this role exists

We are entering a phase where Mudland is actively building real partnerships and revenue pathways.
This role is not about content or social media.

It is about:

building a pipeline of serious organisations and opening real conversations

What you will do

1. Build a target pipeline

• Identify and map 50–100 relevant organisations, including:
  • Energy companies (hydrogen, renewables)
  • Climate funds and investors
  • Foundations and international organisations
• Find key decision-makers (partnerships, strategy, innovation roles)

2. Support outreach and activation

• Draft and send targeted outreach messages (email / LinkedIn)
• Track responses and manage follow-ups
• Help convert interest into scheduled conversations

3. Structure opportunities

• Help prepare briefs, proposals, and decks
• Translate ongoing conversations into clear partnership opportunities
• Support positioning Mudland’s offer in a structured way

4. Build internal systems

• Set up and maintain a simple CRM / tracking system
• Organise contacts, conversations, and next steps
• Help create a repeatable pipeline process

What we are looking for

• Strong communication skills (clear, concise, confident)
• Comfortable with outreach and professional communication
• Ability to research and structure information
• Interest in climate, energy, or global development
• Self-driven and reliable (this matters more than experience)

Bonus if you have:

• Background in consulting, startups, or partnerships
• Familiarity with climate or energy sector
• Experience with LinkedIn outreach or CRM tools

What you will gain

• Direct exposure to building a high-level advisory and partnerships pipeline
• Experience working across climate, energy, and international markets
