PHASE Worldwide is a Bristol based charity that believes everyone, everywhere, even those in the world’s most remote places should have access to primary healthcare, education, and livelihoods opportunities. We think that poor health, low levels of education, and few livelihood opportunities create a cycle that prevents people from a life outside of poverty. This is why, with our partner, we empower remote communities in Nepal through integrated and sustainable programmes across the three areas of health, education, and livelihoods. 

PHASE Worldwide is recruiting an individual with a legal background to join our Governance and HR Committee. PHASE Worldwide has a full Trustee Board of 8 Trustees with four committees. These include: Organisational Development and Partnerships, Fundraising and Communications, Finance and Risk, and Governance and HR. Each committee is chaired by a Trustee and has at least 2 members who are also trustees. Committees aim to meet every eight weeks and a minimum of four times a year. The committees can make recommendations to the board for agreement by exception, but not final decisions. The Board manages risk collectively and uses committees to support PHASE Worldwide’s work and charitable objectives.

As part of the Governance and HR committee, you will be responsible for:

1.1 Ensuring that PHASE Worldwide is compliant with relevant legal and regulatory frameworks (including CRB checks, charity law, trust law, employment law, equality and data protection legislation, health, and safety regulations)

1.2 Maintaining governing documentation (Trust Deed and Annual Trustees Report)

1.3 Reviewing existing and new contracts to ensure that they are both legal and in the best interest of PHASE Worldwide

1.4 Acting as internal advisor to the Board of Trustees and the Director, should any disputes arise

Dales Academies Trust

Non-executive director/ Trustee role

Could you be an Academy Ambassador in North Yorkshire? Dales Academies Trust seeks one non-executive director/trustee to join its board.

The Academy Ambassadors programme brings the expertise of the business world onto boards at academy trusts throughout the country to raise standards of education and improve the life chances of young people, which is critical to our social and economic success.

The opportunity

A fourteen-school academy trust serving more than 2,500 young people in North Yorkshire, Dales Academies Trust is seeking to develop quality staffing, strengthen its finances and potentially grow the number of schools over the next two years. In order to help achieve these aims, while retaining its faith-based ethos, the trust is recruiting a new trustee with skills in finance and/or property, especially with experience in both urban and rural settings. Trust board meetings are normally held at Trinity Academy, Richmond, although some flexibility to accommodate current Covid-19 restrictions is currently anticipated. Applicants of all faiths and of none are welcomed.

The board seeks one business leader with expertise in

· non-executive/trustee and

· finance or

· estates/property

As a key member of the board you will support the trust in achieving the following over the next 12 – 24 months:

1. Staff recruitment and retention - recruit and retain best quality staff. The trust believes it is already strong in this area, and management and governance oversight are robust, but as the key element of the strength of its teaching, the trustees intend to ensure a close control is maintained over this aspect of the trust operation;
2. Financial management - strengthened finances, ensuring efficiency and best quality delivery. This is in the context that finances are well controlled: many of the trust’s schools are small, some of which are sub-grouped within the trust under an executive head;
3. Managed growth – the expansion of the trust in a controlled and appropriate way. The trustees are not 'hunting' for schools to acquire, and do not aspire to increase the size of the trust faster than is prudent, however they do welcome exploratory conversations with schools in the local area that may be interested in joining Dales Academies Trust.

Due to an increased pupil admission number (PAN) at secondary phase, over the longer term the trust has a requirement to serve this larger roll as it progresses. The board has a desire to retain the 'family' character of the trust, with a strong Church of England influence in its overall ethos. The trust also seeks steady growth, but wishes to avoid moving towards a ‘hub’ model of operation.
