The Charities HR Network – Trustee
Following a period of significant growth, The Charities HR Network (CHRN) is looking for three new Trustees to join its board in 2025.
As the UK’s only network dedicated to supporting HR professionals in the charity sector, CHRN plays a vital role in connecting professionals, championing best practice, and providing tools and resources that really make a difference.
This is a voluntary role with real influence. Trustees help guide CHRN’s strategic direction, support the CEO and team, and ensure that its growing membership continues to be served in meaningful and forward-thinking ways.
Active for over 20 years, the CHRN now supports over 150 charities and is aiming to double this reach within the next three years. As part of this next chapter, CHRN is particularly keen to appoint trustees with experience in talent acquisition, learning and development, or organisational development. Two of these appointments will also help lead specialist groups in these areas.
CHRN welcomes applications from individuals with senior experience in HR or the charity sector. Previous board experience isn’t required, but the ability to think strategically, a collaborative approach, and a commitment to inclusion and equity is important.
Key details:
- Remote/virtual meetings (likely one per year face to face) – trustees can be based anywhere in the UK
- Time commitment: around 4–6 board and committee meetings per year
- Voluntary position with expenses covered
- A supportive and inclusive team culture, with opportunities to influence sector-wide change
- Personal and professional development through board-level experience, networking, and leadership of special interest groups
- Initial tenure of 3 years, with an option to extend for an additional 2 years
Trustees at CHRN are hands-on, insightful, and central to the success of the organisation. They work closely with the CEO and team to support service delivery, develop partnerships (including with the CIPD), and ensure that CHRN continues to meet the evolving needs of its members.
To apply, candidates should send a CV and short supporting statement to Peter Reeve, CEO. Informal conversations are welcome in advance and Peter can be contacted via email or LinkedIn.
