Board Trustee
Job title: Trustee
Responsible to: Chair and Board Members.
Salary: Unpaid: Reasonable expenses incurred while travelling to meetings can be claimed from the organisation.
About the role:
The role of the trustee board is to receive assets from donors, safeguard them and apply them to the charitable purposes of Salcare. The trustee board must always act in the best interests of Salcare, exercising the same standard of duty of care that a prudent person would apply if looking after the affairs of someone for whom they have responsibility. The trustee board must act as a group not as individuals.
Duties of a trustee:
The duties of a trustee are to:
· Ensure that Salcare complies with its governing document, charity law, company law and any other relevant legislation or regulations

· Safeguard the good name and values of Salcare.
· To ensure the effective and efficient administration of Salcare including having appropriate policies and procedures in place.
· To protect and manage the property of Salcare and to ensure proper investment of the organisation’s funds
· To appoint the most senior staff member and appraise their performance
As well as the statutory duties, each trustee should use any specific skills, knowledge or experience they have to help the board of trustees reach sound decisions. This may involve leading discussions, identifying key issues, providing advice and guidance on new initiatives, and evaluating or offering advice on other areas in which the trustee has particular expertise.
In addition trustees are expected to:
· Be committed to the vision and values of Salcare
· Abide by Salcare’s policies and procedures
· Meet the minimum time commitment including attending the majority of board meetings
· Declare conflicts of interest
· Keep informed of the organisation’s work
· Contribute actively to the Board of Trustees
· Participate in relevant training
· Be willing to undergo a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check
· Agree to, and comply with, the Trustee Code of Conduct
Minimum time commitment:
On average the minimum time commitment is between six and ten days per year depending on level of involvement.
Board meetings:
Trustees are required to attend bi-monthly Board meetings for which they are expected to read papers and prepare. Board meetings usually take place at the Salcare main office, Heanor, for up to two hours during working hours: occasionally board meetings may be held remotely using Zoom or Microsoft Office. The timings of Board meetings is regularly reviewed in the light of the practical needs of the trustees.
Planning sessions and team building
Most years trustees will be expected to engage in two half day sessions; these will generally be during the day.
Committees/Working Groups
According to their individual skills and experience, most trustees will be invited to serve on a sub-committee. Some sub-committees are standing committees and meet quarterly, others are fixed term ‘task and finish’ groups.
Other Support
Generally trustees are expected to support in practical ways such as participating in interviewing for senior staff, representing Salcare at events, or engaging in fundraising activity; some of these activities take place during the day.
Term of service
Our practice is for Trustees to serve on the Board for a three-year period at the end of which they may be re-elected for up to two further terms.

Each trustee must have:
· A commitment to the vision, mission and values of Salcare.

About Onja
Onja is a social enterprise training underprivileged youth into world-class software developers.
We find the brightest students in Madagascar who can’t afford to continue their education, and train them in English language and software development. After just two-and-a-half years they are ready to work as remote front-end software developers in international tech teams.
Once in a job, our developers earn a good salary that helps them support their families and pay forward the opportunity to a new wave of students. They unlock exciting careers that fulfil their potential, and accelerate the development of their nation (see ‘How Onja Works’ below).
Our first cohort, ‘Wave 1’, consists of nineteen talented and committed graduates who are now working remotely for our partner companies in Europe and the US. With this immensely successful first cohort, and a proven social model, our goal is now to scale our impact: we aim to take on 360 new students over the next four years.
Our fast-growing team is very united, committed to the mission, and hardworking, but we also maintain a relaxed and peaceful atmosphere that you’ll find everywhere in Madagascar.
Onja is located in Toamasina, a lively city with beautiful beaches, nice restaurants, and with plenty to do and see. Toamasina is Madagascar’s second largest city (population 300,000) yet is surrounded by plenty of natural beauty, and even has a national park nearby.
About the position
From 2020 to 2021, we developed and delivered a full-time English and software development course that allowed nineteen students to progress from absolute beginners to industry-ready software developers, and they are now all working in US/European tech teams remotely from Madagascar. While our developers were still students, they also received considerable instruction in professionalism which has made a big difference to their current job performance and success. While professionalism is sometimes overlooked, we believe that these soft skills are crucial for success in life and work. Our challenge now is to scale our organisation, bringing opportunities to hundreds, moving to thousands of students.
Your mission as our Professionalism Course Designer is to take our existing professionalism course and build on it, creating a highly scalable digital course.
Your responsibilities include:
Building a course focusing primarily on workplace professionalism and communication in a scalable online-style programme. How this can be achieved is very open and will depend on you and some input from the wider team. We imagine it’s likely to include the following:
- Finding existing online material and incorporate useful material into the course
- Creating engaging video lectures, learning activities and course content
- Collaborate with our existing Communication Coach, incorporating their specific experience into your course design.
- Deciding on the criteria used to assess students’ performance and develop assessments.
- As we are a startup social enterprise there will likely be opportunities to wear many hats, contributing to other parts of the organisation.
This is a pivotal role for Onja at this exciting time. We are poised to grow fast and our dream is to train thousands of new students each year. You will be setting the foundations for waves of youth that will follow in future years.
Requirements
- Twelve month commitment (this ensures sufficient time to make a truly meaningful impact) with potential to renew/extend.
- Excellent English communication skills
- Experience working in professional environments
What you can expect
- You’ll join our tight-knit, committed team in Toamasina, Madagascar.
- We know it’s a big move so we will look after you and make sure you are secure and settled.
- Secure, comfortable accommodation is provided
- Food is provided
- We are able to offer a stipend/good local salary – enough to live comfortably and have plenty left over for holidays travels.
- Unlimited annual leave. We recommend between 30 and 35 days as a guide to give you time to explore the wonders of Madagascar.
- We also offer 25% remote work
- We’ll provide optional weekly lessons to bring you up to speed with the language.
- Your visa will be sponsored.
- Sponsored flights
How Onja Works
Onja is a social enterprise with a sustainable model:
- Search for brilliant minds who would otherwise be limited to low-paid, unfulfilling careers.
- Students receive two years of English and software development instruction.
- Graduates earn (and continue learning) at our outsourcing enterprise.
- All profits are used to train the next wave of students and the cycle begins again.
