Digital Trustee

Hospice UK has a vacancy for a trustee with technology, digital or data expertise.

Hospice UK is the membership body for the hospice movement with over 200 member organisations across the four nations of the United Kingdom.  We are seeking to strengthen the skill base of our Board of voluntary trustees by appointing an individual who has senior professional experience in technology, digital or data roles, and with a good understanding of charities or membership bodies.

As a member of the Board, you will share on our responsibility to deliver our Five Year Strategy, 2024 to 2029.

You will need to work within Hospice UK’s values providing support, encouragement and appropriate challenge within the Board. You will be an ambassador for the organisation and committed to our mission, “Hospice Care, for all, for now, forever.”

The role is voluntary although reasonable expenses are paid within our policy.  You will be expected to attend four board meetings each year as well as a two day away time session.  Board meetings are generally held at our Headquarters, Hospice House and are in person.  The away time will move around the country and again are in person meetings.  You will also be expected to be a member of the People and Support Services Committee which also meets four times per year. This committee meets virtually. 

More information about the role is available in the candidate brief (on our website)
