About the job

Join the Board of Bristol Historic Buildings Trust — help restore a landmark for the community

Bristol Historic Buildings Trust (BHBT) is seeking passionate new Trustees to help us bring Ashton Court Mansion back to life.

Ashton Court Mansion is a Grade I listed manor house with origins dating to the 14th century, set within an 850-acre estate on the edge of Bristol. After decades of partial dereliction, we are working to take a 125-year lease from Bristol City Council and regenerate this extraordinary building for generations to come — as a living civic place where heritage, creativity and public life meet.

We are transitioning to a Charitable Community Benefit Society and preparing to launch a Community Share Offer in July 2026. This is an exciting moment to join the Board and play a shaping role in the project's next chapter.

We are particularly looking for trustees with skills and experience in:

• Charity finances and governance

• Public engagement and fundraising

• Law

• Commercial and business development

• Community projects — especially in Culture, Food, Skills, Sustainability and Heritage

We are also committed to a board that reflects the community we serve, and actively welcome applications from younger people seeking their first trustee experience.

What's involved:

• 4 quarterly board meetings per year (March, June, September, December) — approx. 2 hours each

• An annual strategy day

• Additional involvement as your skills allow — fundraising, stakeholder meetings, representing the charity at events

• Terms of up to 3 years (renewable)

• The role is unremunerated; reasonable expenses are reimbursed

Our mission: to restore and operate Ashton Court Mansion through a mixed-use model combining conservation, community programming and commercial activity — ensuring long-term financial and public sustainability.

If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you. Informal conversations welcome before applying.
