Job description

UWTSD Students’ Union is dedicated to supporting every student at the University of Wales Trinity Saint David, helping them make the most of their university experience. Known as “the people in purple,” the Union accompanies students throughout their entire journey, from application to graduation, providing services that help them connect with others, explore their potential, and find their place both at UWTSD and beyond.

As a proudly student-led organisation, the Union has more than 15,630 members, with every enrolled student automatically included. It aims to be a trusted friend and guide throughout the student experience.

The Role
The Students’ Union is seeking a Trustee for People and Culture with experience in HR management (CIPD qualification desirable) and strong commercial awareness. The role requires confidence in mentoring students, alignment with democratic and student-led values, and the ability to exercise independent judgement. Strategic thinking, an understanding of trustee responsibilities, and awareness of societal inequality are essential.

The Trustee will contribute collaboratively to the Board, bringing forward ideas to enhance student engagement and support the development of student-led activities. The Board encourages a culture that is fun, innovative, and forward-thinking, and seeks trustees who challenge convention, take considered risks, and help drive continuous improvement to create an energised and empowering environment.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Attending at least five Board meetings per year (mostly online, with one in-person in June)

  • Working with fellow trustees to set strategy, policy, finances, and organisational direction

  • Agreeing strategic objectives and reviewing the performance of the Chief Executive

  • Participating in trustee and staff recruitment, completing induction and training, and preparing thoroughly for meetings

  • Monitoring organisational performance through KPIs, project reports, and management accounts

  • Contributing to relevant sub-committees, including approximately three People & Culture Committee meetings annually

  • Being available for appeals when required, promoting the Students’ Union, and acting in its best interests

  • Ensuring the Union operates effectively, responsibly, and in compliance with all legal and charitable requirements

The Trustee for People and Culture will play a central role in shaping a supportive, inclusive, and thriving environment for students and staff alike.
