Borough Market is London’s oldest food Market. It was established on the south bank of the Thames around 1,000 years ago and has occupied its present site for over 250 years. Borough Market was formally registered as a charity (076940) in the Charity Commission’s records on 6th August 1999.

Its main charitable purpose is “the provision of a market as a public amenity for the benefit of the public”. In delivering our charitable objectives and strategy, the trustees of Borough Market are required to manage the Trust’s investments efficiently and to bring about the regeneration and refurbishment of the Market and its estate. Trustees need to act as a ‘critical friend’, providing vital checks and balances, and be committed to supporting the Market in its ambition to be the best in the world.

We are delighted to be advertising for a new trustee to boost a balanced Board that reflects our activities and the community in which the Market operates. We are particularly keen to recruit an individual who has knowledge of and experience in the food industry, food supply chain sustainability and food policy.

We want people who can demonstrate real enthusiasm and love of the Market, and a desire to make a difference and give back to the community.

We particularly welcome applications from people with a strong connection to the local area of Southwark, whether through residence, work, volunteering or community involvement. Preference will be given to candidates who live within the local area or have lived in the local area in the past.

We want a Board that is representative of our local community, so we encourage applications from candidates from traditionally underrepresented groups who have the right level of skills and experience including lived experience but not necessarily at Board level.

Candidates should be aware that trustee roles are subject to meeting Charity Commission eligibility criteria. Individuals should not apply to a trustee position or serve in that position if they do not meet the criteria or have been disqualified.
