Job description

The Society of Evidence Based Policing is looking for an additional trustee to join its board, with a particular focus on legal expertise.

SEBP is a registered UK charity that exists to improve policing for the public through the use, production and communication of evidence based practices in policing. We’ve been around since 2012 and although we’re run by and for police personnel, we’re an entirely independent grassroots organisation. You can learn more about our work at our website.

Our board provides governance, oversight, and strategic direction as the organisation grows.

Why we’re recruiting

We are strengthening the board for two reasons. First, resilience: an additional trustee helps ensure meetings remain quorate and decision-making robust when one or two trustees are unavailable. Second, expertise: we would particularly value a trustee with a legal background, ideally in charity and organisational law, to support good governance as SEBP develops.

The role

As a trustee you would:

  • Contribute to the strategic direction and good governance of the charity
  • Provide advice and scrutiny on organisational, charitable, and compliance matters
  • Bring legal perspective to board decisions and emerging issues
  • Act as an ambassador for SEBP and its mission

This is an unpaid, voluntary position; reasonable expenses are covered. The board currently meets once every other month, remotely and occasionally in person. Beyond meetings, we would expect occasional ad-hoc input between sessions — for example, a view on a specific governance or legal question — but the overall commitment is modest and manageable alongside a professional role.

Who we’re looking for

You don’t need prior policing or trustee experience. We are interested in hearing from people who:

  • Bring legal expertise, particularly in charity law, organisational governance, or employment law
  • Are committed to SEBP’s mission of evidence-based policing
  • Can think strategically and offer constructive challenge
  • Can commit the time to prepare for and attend meetings

We are committed to a diverse board and welcome applications from candidates who would broaden the range of perspectives and experience around the table.

Eligibility

Appointments are subject to the standard requirement that candidates are not disqualified from acting as a charity trustee under the Charities Act. As a policing charity, we also require confirmation that candidates do not appear on the College of Policing’s Police Barred List. Successful candidates will be asked to provide the relevant declarations as part of the appointment process.

How to apply or find out more

If this interests you — or if you know someone it might suit — please get in touch. Informal enquiries are welcome and encouraged before applying. To express interest, send a short statement (no more than one page) outlining what you would bring to the role, along with a CV or summary of relevant experience. Applications will be considered on a rolling basis, with a final deadline of 31st July 2026. For enquiries or to apply, contact Ben Linton, Chair of Trustees.
