Trustee

We're looking for new Trustees to join the Board of The Aldingbourne Trust and support our mission of enabling people with learning disabilities and autism to live fulfilling lives.

As a Trustee, you will:

• Share responsibility with fellow Trustees for ensuring the Board meets its legal, regulatory and financial responsibilities, while providing effective strategic leadership.
• Bring independent judgement, constructive challenge and relevant skills to support robust decision-making and accountability.
• Champion The Aldingbourne Trust's mission, values and commitment to listening to the people we support, as well as their families, colleagues and communities.
• Support and appropriately challenge the Chief Executive and Executive Team through the Board, while respecting the distinction between governance and day-to-day operational management.
• Act as an ambassador for The Aldingbourne Trust and help build confidence and positive relationships with families, commissioners, partners, supporters and the wider community.

This is a rewarding opportunity to use your skills and experience to make a meaningful impact while contributing to the strategic direction of a respected local charity. We welcome applications from people with a wide range of backgrounds and experiences.

We are keen to hear from people who can bring a range of skills, experiences and perspectives to our Board. Previous trustee experience is not essential, and we welcome applications from individuals who share our values and are committed to our mission.

Trustees bring different strengths and are supported to develop their understanding of governance.
