Job description

We Need Your Help!

The need in our community is growing rapidly, and we’re stepping up — but we cannot do it alone. We urgently need committed leaders who believe in social justice, community empowerment, and the power of second chances.

Become a Trustee and Help Shape the Future of Unlock YOUR Potential

Unlock YOUR Potential supports NEET adults (18+) across East London to rebuild confidence, access coaching, and reconnect with their potential. Demand for our services is rising fast, and we are building the foundations of a movement rooted in hope, opportunity, and bold orange energy.

To grow responsibly — and to become a registered charity — we need passionate Trustees who can guide our mission, strengthen our governance, and help us reach the adults who need us most.

Your Impact

As a Trustee, you will help shape the strategic direction of Unlock YOUR Potential at a pivotal moment in our journey. Your leadership will influence how we grow, how we serve, and how we create long‑term change for adults who have been overlooked for far too long.

You will help us:

  • Build a strong, ethical, and effective governance structure

  • Prepare for and secure official charity status

  • Strengthen our programmes, partnerships, and community reach

  • Ensure we remain accountable, sustainable, and mission‑driven

Your decisions will directly impact the lives of adults seeking support, stability, and a fresh start.

What You’ll Be Involved In

  • Shaping our long‑term strategy and organisational vision

  • Supporting our transition into a registered charity

  • Overseeing governance, safeguarding, and financial stewardship

  • Championing our mission across East London and beyond

  • Providing guidance, challenge, and encouragement to our small but passionate team

This is a hands‑on, high‑impact role for someone who wants to help build something meaningful from the ground up.

What You Bring

We welcome Trustees from all backgrounds — especially those who understand the challenges faced by NEET adults or who bring lived experience.

You may be:

  • A strategic thinker with experience in governance, finance, community work, education, or social impact

  • A communicator who believes in empowerment, dignity, and opportunity

  • A leader who can offer guidance, accountability, and encouragement

  • Someone who cares deeply about East London and wants to give back

Most importantly, you bring integrity, compassion, and a commitment to helping adults unlock their potential.

What You Gain

  • A meaningful leadership role in a growing social impact organisation

  • The chance to shape a movement from its earliest stages

  • The satisfaction of helping adults access life‑changing support

  • Experience in governance, charity development, and strategic leadership

  • A community of passionate people working toward a shared mission

This is an opportunity to leave a legacy — to help build an organisation that will support thousands in the years ahead.

 

If you’re ready to help us lead change, we’d love to hear from you.
