Join Our Board - Help shape the future of Merton’s vibrant voluntary, community and social enterprise sector.
Merton Connected is seeking two to three new trustees to join us at an exciting time of growth.
Merton's voluntary, community, social enterprise and faith sector is full of energy, ideas and people determined to make a difference. As the borough's infrastructure charity, Merton Connected sits right at the heart of it: connecting, supporting and championing the organisations that support local people every day.
Now we want you to help shape what comes next.
Who we're looking for
We're seeking people who bring curiosity, strategic thinking, and a genuine commitment to inclusive community development. Whether this would be your first governance role or you've supported other boards before, what matters most is your perspective and your willingness to engage.
We're particularly keen to hear from people with insight or experience in:
- Charity management
- Public health, health and social care integration, or partnership working between statutory and VCS organisations
- Marketing and communications
- Digital and AI operations
- Income generation and fundraising
- Impact and performance measurement
We also warmly welcome applicants with diverse lived experience, fresh perspectives, and a strong connection to Merton. There's no single profile we're looking for, and different viewpoints make us stronger.
What you'll be doing
As a trustee, you'll help shape our strategy, strengthen good governance, and champion the voices of local organisations and residents. You'll join a collaborative, supportive board that works closely with our leadership team to ensure Merton's voluntary, community and faith sector continues to thrive.
What you'll gain
- The chance to influence local priorities and make a meaningful difference to people's lives
- Insight into how a well-connected, values-driven infrastructure charity works from the inside
- Opportunities to share your knowledge and develop your own strategic and leadership skills
- A place on a welcoming, inclusive board committed to learning and collective impact
The practical bit
Time commitment: 4–6 meetings per year (including strategy days), with occasional subgroups or events
Support offered: A full induction is provided, and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses are reimbursed.
We are actively seeking to expand our board and hope to make at least two trustee appointments over the next two months.
Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, and we may appoint additional trustees where their skills and experience complement the board.
