Trustee
About the Role
What will you be doing?
Along with our existing, dedicated Board of Trustees, you will help to drive the present and future of the charity to achieve its mission.
This is a voluntary role and, though we ask that Board members are able to devote approximately 3-5 hours per week to the charity’s work, we work in a respectful environment that is scalable to your individual circumstances.
Key Responsibilities
Previous experience in environmental and/or third sector roles is welcome but not necessary, and nor do we consider it a requirement that you have previous experience as part of a Board or Executive Committee.
We are particularly interested in hearing from individuals with experience in any of the following fields:
Marketing / Branding / Promotion
Leading growth of third sector or corporate organizations
Strategy development
Environmental/Ecological best practice
Personal Qualities
More important to us, however, is having integrity, team-working ethic and a passion to help
develop and grow our charity.
Preference may be given to individuals who are connected to our community and can have a
presence on-site, but we are open to fully remote working for the right individual.
How to apply:
We welcome applications from individuals of all backgrounds and look forward to receiving your application. Please submit your CV and a cover letter outlining your experience and reasons for applying to Owen Black (owen.black@2050.scot). Applicants will be invited to attend an initial conversation with a member of the Board of Trustees in order to assess personality fit and values alignments and, if successful, will be invited to present a vision for the charity to all Board members ahead of a final decision. If you would like to discuss the role in advance of applying, please get in touch with Owen Black. We also encourage applicants to look at our website and Facebook page, which will tell you about what we're up to on a daily basis.
