Trustee and Chair of Finance and Fundraising Committee

This is an exciting time for the Helen Bamber Foundation Group (which comprises Helen 
Bamber Foundation and Asylum Aid) as we continue to grow our impact and strengthen our 
services for survivors of torture, trafficking, and human cruelty and those seeking protection. 
Our work is more crucial than ever, as we advocate for vulnerable individuals within a 
challenging and evolving global landscape. 

This year, we are looking to recruit a Trustee and Chair of the Finance and Fundraising Committee 
to replace the current position holder who is retiring from the role. This role is a key member of 
both Boards of Trustees, providing oversight of both charities’ financial health and helping ensure 
strong financial governance of the Group. Working closely with the CEO of Helen Bamber 
Foundation Group, the Executive Director of Asylum Aid, the Director of Finance and Governance 
and both Boards, this trustee will support strategic decision-making by ensuring that trustees 
have clear and accurate financial information and that the Group operates with robust financial 
controls. The role plays an important role in helping the Boards balance ambition and growth 
with responsible financial stewardship.

As a Trustee you will be part of a small team of volunteers who are collectively responsible for 
developing and guiding the strategic direction of the Group and steering the long-term stability. 
You’ll also chair the Finance and Fundraising Sub-Committee, which serves both Helen Bamber 
Foundation and Asylum Aid.

Please see the role description for further details.
