Global Charities Trustee Role Vacancy
Grant-making and Impact measurements specialism
Role Description
INTRODUCTION
Global Charities (operating name Global’s Make Some Noise) is the official charity of Global, the UK and Europe’s largest Radio and Outdoor company. The Charity brings Global staff and the Global’s amazing brands together to create incredible change for communities right across the UK.
Since 2014, Make Some Noise (MSN) has raised more than £43 million, changed more than 248,000 lives and additionally reached more than 603,000 people through over 755 projects across the UK.
We are seeking an experienced, values-driven and analytically strong individual to join our Board of Trustees, with a particular focus on grant-making, impact measurement and an understanding of diverse and marginalised communities.
You will bring rigorous judgement and constructive challenge to Board discussions, helping to ensure our grant-making decisions are robust and evidence-led, and that the charity maximises its impact for beneficiaries across the UK. This is an exceptional opportunity to use your expertise in support of communities facing some of life's toughest challenges.
GLOBAL’S MAKE SOME NOISE
Global’s Make Some Noise utilises the power and reach of Global’s platforms, talent, and client base to raise vital funds and awareness for the charities we support. We also work closely with Global staff 'Globallers’, to tap into their skills and experience, which allows us to build meaningful training and development opportunities for our small charities and maximise the partnership, events and on-air fundraising opportunities.
We align with Global’s proposition of “national brands delivered locally”, so that we are relevant to audiences in terms of both raising money and supporting local projects. We also align with Global’s culture of Making Everyone’s Day Brighter and work closely across the business to maximise the opportunities under this shared vision.
The Charity works closely with individual radio brands to develop fundraising strategies relevant to their audiences and commercial clients. We continue to focus on growing brand awareness of Global’s Make Some Noise and to innovate our various fundraising streams in order to support small charities that are in need of financial help and align with the Charity’s strategy.
Global’s Make Some Noise actively supports around 100 charities a year, in communities across the UK. These charities are small (under £1million in revenue) but high in impact, and provide critical help for some of the most vulnerable in our society.
We run 3 programmes to build sustainability in small charities:
· An awareness programme to generate much needed publicity and support
· A grants programme to fund vital services and equipment
· A learning and development programme to help upskill charities
Our mission is to ensure that nobody in the UK is left facing life’s toughest challenges alone. We deliver that mission through four key pillars :
· Providing shelter and safety; A safe home is essential, yet millions of people don’t live in one. We work with small charities that exist to support those who have no option but to live on the streets, in temporary accommodation or in unsafe or overcrowded houses.
· Supporting physical and mental health; We fund crucial services to ensure people can access the support they need to feel well. This includes funding hospice and care services, mental health helplines, respite support for people with disabilities and their families, and food banks for those living in poverty.
· Improving life skills; We’re supporting programmes that are dedicated to improving people’s life skills and future opportunities. This includes helping people get the education they need, upskilling them for the future, providing access to wellbeing support, and supporting them into employment.
· Preventing isolation; We recognise how vital it is for people to be connected so we fund crucial projects that prevent isolation. These include community projects that bring people together to build a sense of belonging, as well providing access to devices that support connections and digital skills training.
Our 2025 fundraising appeal for Global’s Make Some Noise raised a record-breaking £4.8million for communities across the UK. You can find out more about our impact here: https://cdn.sanity.io/files/lvz0au6x/production/e2f407d31e35d28769be5008efd248bbdb68f44c.pdf

We’re seeking a Trustee with strategic finance (CFO-level) expertise to strengthen our board as we grow and to help us scale our mission to bring economic opportunites to those impacted by homelessness.
You’ll bring commercial acumen to our mission—helping us plan sustainably, understand our unit economics, and scale responsibly—without being “the accountant.” Our operations are hospitality-led, so experience in catering, hospitality, or multi-site venues is helpful (not essential).
About 130 Primrose

What you’ll do
· Support the Board and Chair with financial strategy, planning, and risk management.
· Challenge and refine our financial model, forecasting, and cashflow planning (12–36 months).
· Help shape P&L, balance sheet and cash visibility that operators can use day-to-day.
· Advise on site-level unit economics, menu margin mix, labour model, and cost control.
· Strengthen budgeting, KPI dashboards, and scenario modelling for growth (e.g., second site in Brighton).
· Support funding strategy: grants, philanthropy, corporate partnerships, social investment.
· Create a Finance & Risk Committee (chair if appropriate).
· Ensure robust governance, internal controls, and compliance with charity and company law.
· Act as a critical friend—asking the right questions, mentoring our leadership and on site General Manager and team, and championing our mission.
We’re not looking for
· A bookkeeper or day-to-day accountant. We want a strategic finance leader who can translate numbers into decisions and coach an operations-minded team.
