About the role
As Chair of the Board of Governors at Barnet & Southgate College, you will work collaboratively with an established Board of Governors: Darren Mepham, CEO; Neil Coker, Principal and Deputy Chief Executive; Mark Sellis, Executive Director of Corporate Services and Tracey McIntosh, Executive Director of Partnerships and Commercial, to lead and direct the College into the future.
Part of your initial work is likely to be focused on understanding the College, its ambitions and strategic opportunities. The Board of Governors are currently working with the CEO to define a new, long-term strategy and so your role will be critical in ensuring the College embeds a new strategic plan across the organisation and the Board of Governors play an active role in its continuous review.
Who we're looking for
With a naturally strategic mind, experience of operating at a very senior level within a large and complex business environment, and a passion and commitment to lifelong learning, the next Chair will lead an established and experienced team of non-executive board members.
Whilst recognising your experience might not have been gained in the further education sector, you should understand and appreciate the role of further education and its impact on economic and skills improvement. Barnet & Southgate College provides life changing opportunities to people of all ages; it is vital that the Chair recognises this and is willing and able to champion the work of the College in the role of ambassador across the sector, the local community and wider stakeholder communities.
Your style should be inclusive and collaborative, to enable and foster open and honest discussion and debate around the board table. With previous Chair or board-level experience, you’ll recognise the difference between executive and non-executive decision making and lead the appraisal of plans put forward by the CEO, the Principal and executive team with the required level of challenge and respect.
With the Further Education sector expected to continue to change and adapt in response to Government policy, the Chair will need to be decisive; recognising when to act independently and when to draw on the expertise around the Board, the executive team and peers within the sector.

About the role
Parentkind is a charity (turnover is c.£1.5m) that represents the voice of parents, guardians, carers and over 13,000 Parent Teacher Associations across England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Parentkind exists to support more parents to engage in more schools in more ways to benefit as many children as possible. We believe that when parents and carers are involved in their children’s education, it has the greatest impact in not just results, but in their children’s self-esteem, confidence and enthusiasm for learning.
We changed our name from PTA UK to Parentkind to reflect and embrace the full range of parents and carers and all the different ways we support people in having a say in children’s education. We do this by championing the role of parents in their child’s education through our research and by influencing senior education policy makers and legislators such as MPs and government officials.
As we embark on our new five-year strategy this year, we seek Trustees who can embrace change, mirror our ambitions, drive innovation, provide strategic insight and possess the desire to impact the education sector. We believe the voice of parents and carers is too often excluded and silenced and therefore we seek three people who will add real value to our Board, organisation and the sector as a whole.
Who we're looking for
We are looking for people with the skills and experience in frontline education, external affairs, organisational development and finance. It is vital for us that our Board represents the people that we support and our society as a whole and we are keen to ensure that we continue to have a diverse Board. You will support us as we are on the cusp of our new strategy. We seek to gain more government engagement and look to engage with those who bring sector knowledge and lived and breathed experience in education at leadership level. This will help us ensure we are developing a strong strategy, lobbying the government to change policies for the better and supporting parents and carers who want a voice in their children’s education.
The Board meets five times a year in usually in Central London plus a yearly strategy away day in Tonbridge. Sub-Committee meetings including the Audit and Finance Committee and the Nominations, Governance and Employment Committee meet at least twice annually. Trustees are expected to join at least one committee. The term of office for all three roles is three years. The time commitment for a Trustee is 12 days per year.
By joining Parentkind’s board you can help us by providing strategic vision, strategy development, innovation, scrutiny and challenge. This is an opportunity to join an exciting organisation operating in a fascinating space in the charity sector with ambitious growth plans. Candidates will have a keen interest and passion to influence and drive our strategy to support, engage and champion parents in education.
If you are excited by the opportunity to help amplify the voice of parents, we would love to hear from you.

About the Team
Making a difference, one penny at a time.
Fundraising is the building block of the Red Cross, without it there'd be no Emergency First Aid, no Refugee Support, and no Disaster Relief. We're a busy bunch, with our team doing loads of different things, but we all share the same goal - to help those that need it most.

About the Team
Making a difference, one penny at a time.
Fundraising is the building block of the Red Cross, without it there'd be no Emergency First Aid, no Refugee Support, and no Disaster Relief. We're a busy bunch, with our team doing loads of different things, but we all share the same goal - to help those that need it most.
From ground level all the way to devising corporate fundraising strategies, we're a diverse team who never forgets that every penny raised could go to saving the life of someone in crisis.
Here's a little bit more about us...
The British Red Cross help anyone, anywhere in the UK; get the support they need if crisis strikes.
From hiring a wheelchair or dealing with loneliness, to adjusting to life in a new country - we're there when you need us. Our goal is to connect human kindness with human crisis.
We're part of the global Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, and we believe in the power of kindness.
Our organisation was born out of a desire to bring help without discrimination. Impartiality and neutrality have been central values for the Red Cross since we started.
We support a huge range of people and we recruit for a diverse workforce - including disabled and ethnic minority candidates. This is to contribute to the breadth of experience we need to respond to people in crisis.
