Trustee

Are you seeking an opportunity to give something back to your community by using your skills and experience? If you are passionate about improving lives and have a deep knowledge of either Redcar and Cleveland, the former Borough of Scarborough, Whitby or the North York Moors National Park then think about applying to become a trustee for the Woodsmith Foundation Board.

As a trustee, you will help shape the future work of our charity dedicated to creating a lasting, positive impact for local communities. We are seeking individuals who are curious, collaborative and committed to making a positive difference in the communities we serve. We particularly welcome applications from people under 40 as we want our board to be representative of the communities we work in.

Previous board experience is not necessary as training can be provided and we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds. We would love to strengthen our Board with experience of local authorities, charity governance or evaluation of long term change.

Trustees meet four times a year and the role is voluntary, with reasonable expenses reimbursed.
