Here at Raleigh International we are taking action to harness and maximise the energy, creativity, and determination of the current youth generation to tackle the most pressing and complex challenges facing our planet.

Our Board of Trustees is the governance body for the organization, serving as stewards of its resources and responsible for oversight of strategy, operations, safety and financial management. The board is responsible for ensuring that the organization is meeting its charitable objectives and is well governed.

We’re seeking Directors who can be excellent custodians of our reputation, finances, and legal responsibilities. We need to strengthen our relationships, be more visible, and win students and students’ unions back over to our cause. We need people who can oversee finance, risk, HR, and organisational development, but we also need a bit more than that.

In NUS Charity we’re seeking two Directors serving either a two year or three year term, who will also be Charity Trustees. We’re interested in hearing from people with either a knowledge of Students’ Unions, organisational support and development or with experience in the charity and social enterprise sector.

For each of the roles we’re particularly keen to hear from candidates who might have the below skills:

• Experience in acting as Trustees or non-executive directors

• Comfortable in driving strategy led by NUS’ elected officers

• Experience in interrogating performance data and designing ways to measure organisational effectiveness

• Wide ranging knowledge in building links with public sector organisations.

• A knowledge of the Further Education/Higher Education sector

NUS Charity is the membership organisation for Students’ Unions in the UK. Together, we use our collective power to create, build and grow strong Students’ Unions. Our offer includes core support to build strong students’ unions; championing the value of students unions; connection and curation to promote the value of mutual support for Students’ Unions; and support for students’ unions in crisis

We are looking for one Director to serve a three year term. We’re interested in people who can support great campaigns, bring students together, and who can influence policy at the highest level.

We are looking for three new Trustees:

a) 1 x trustee with Deputy Chair responsibilities

b) 1 x trustee with experience in finance

c) 1 x trustee with lived experience in the areas that we fund (the visual and performing arts, conservation, opportunities for young people)

We are looking to appoint a co-opted Chair of Audit and Risk Committee, and also a further two co-optee roles

ICN is searching for a passionate, dedicated volunteer to to join our Board of Trustees.

This is an exciting opportunity to join the governing body of a leading youth climate action NGO working with schools and partners across the UK to accelerate climate action and promote the voices of young people in their own sustainable future.

As a Trustee, you would bring an enthusiasm for the ideals of ICN and a passion for climate sustainability. We seek a Trustee, and ideally a candidate from a diverse background and of an age that is closer to our student audience, who could bring fresh and lived experiences and perspectives on climate justice and intersectionality, while helping us with our strategy and engagement with young people, schools and education institutions. Ideally you would be willing to volunteer at least 4 hours per month.
