Trustee (Job Ref 25-85)
Are you passionate about supporting young people in Devon?

We are seeking committed and passionate people to support the leadership of a complex organisation. An understanding of governance in a Charity or non-executive setting isn’t essential but will help.
You will be able to demonstrate good judgement combined with excellent strategic and communication skills. As a creative thinker and being able to recognise a range of perspectives you will be able to support fellow Trustees to ensure the Charity is well governed and focused on meeting the needs of young people.
You can download the Candidate Information Pack from our website.
This is a voluntary position but one which we hope will be very rewarding. We aim to appoint to an initial 3-year term with the possibility to extend to a second thereafter. Reasonable and proper expenses will be reimbursed. An enhanced DBS check is required for this position.
