Chair of Charity Board of Directors - VOLUNTEER

Chair of the Board of Trustees - VOLUNTEER

4–8 hours per month | Shoreditch, London | Start‑Up Youth Social Mobility Charity

About REMIX

REMIX is a start‑up, youth‑led social mobility charity transforming young lives across London. Based in Shoreditch, we empower young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to unlock their potential, build confidence, and develop essential life skills through nurturing mentorship, inspiring role models, and transformative opportunities.

We’re in the exciting early stages of building something bold, vibrant, and community‑powered — and we’re looking for a Chair who wants to help shape a movement from the ground up.

The Role

We are seeking a dynamic, compassionate, and forward‑thinking Chair of the Board of Trustees to guide REMIX through its formative years. As a start‑up charity, we are building our governance, culture, systems, and long‑term strategy — and your leadership will be central to this journey.

Time commitment: 4–8 hours per month, including:

• Bi‑monthly Board meetings

• Working groups and sub‑committees

• Chair duties, preparation, and leadership responsibilities

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in early‑stage environments, enjoys shaping structure and direction, and believes deeply in youth empowerment and social mobility.

Key Responsibilities

As Chair, you will:

• Provide strategic leadership to the Board during a crucial start‑up phase.

• Ensure strong governance, clarity of purpose, and alignment with REMIX’s mission and values.

• Support and empower Trustees, fostering a collaborative, inclusive, and high‑performing Board culture.

• Work closely with the Founder, the CEO and Team to develop systems, policies, and long‑term sustainability.

• Lead Board meetings with clarity, fairness, and purpose.

• Champion REMIX externally, helping build partnerships, credibility, and community trust.

• Uphold the highest standards of integrity, transparency, and accountability.

What We’re Looking For

You don’t need previous Chair experience — we welcome people stepping into leadership for the first time. What matters most is your commitment to young people and your ability to lead with heart.

We’re looking for someone who is:

• Passionate about social mobility, youth empowerment, and fairness.

• A strong communicator and facilitator.

• Confident in governance, decision‑making, and strategic thinking.

• Comfortable in start‑up environments where systems are still being built.

• Compassionate, emotionally intelligent, and community‑minded.

• Organised, reliable, and committed to our mission.

Experience in charity governance, safeguarding, youth work, community leadership, or organisational development is beneficial but not essential.

Why Join REMIX?

• Play a central role in shaping a start‑up charity with huge potential.

• Help build the foundations of a movement that champions equity, compassion, and opportunity.

• Influence governance, culture, and long‑term strategy from day one.

• Work with passionate Trustees and volunteers who care deeply about young people.

• Gain leadership experience in governance, strategy, and organisational development.

• Make a meaningful, lasting impact on the lives of young Londoners.

This is your chance to lead a movement from the very beginning.

CLOSING DATE: Monday 30th March 2026, before 6pm
