Queer Beyond Belief exists to imagine and build a world that welcomes and celebrates us all — no ifs, no buts. We are a values-driven, community-rooted organisation committed to integrity, collective liberation, anti-oppression, and queer joy.
Our Board holds us accountable to our mission, stewards our resources, and ensures we stay true to what we stand for.
Purpose of the Role
As a Non-Executive Director, you’ll bring your skills, insights, and lived experience to help shape our strategic direction and keep us accountable. You won’t be involved in day-to-day operations — instead, you’ll act as a critical friend: offering challenge, support, and specialist advice when needed.
Non-Executive Directors ensure that our governance is robust, ethical, and in service of the communities we exist for.
Key Responsibilities
Provide Strategic Oversight:
* Contribute to setting and reviewing our vision, mission, and long-term plans. Offer constructive challenge and help the Board make informed, brave decisions.
Champion Accountability:
* Hold the Executive Directors and wider team to account for delivery of agreed plans, compliance, and ethical practice.
Safeguard our Values:
* Uphold our principles of integrity, anti-oppression, collective liberation, and queer joy in every decision and discussion.
Bring Specialist Insight:
* Offer your unique expertise, perspective, or lived experience to strengthen our understanding of the issues facing our communities.
Ensure Good Governance:
* Attend meetings, read papers in advance, declare any conflicts of interest, and participate actively in discussions and decisions.
Act as an Ambassador:
* Represent Queer Beyond Belief positively and help build trusted relationships with our communities and allies.
What we’re looking for
We welcome people from all walks of life — you don’t need Board experience to apply. We’re especially keen to hear from people with skills, perspectives, or lived experience that are underrepresented in leadership.
You should:
* Share our commitment to collective liberation, anti-oppression, and queer joy.
* Be willing to speak up and ask questions that help us do better.
* Be ready to work collaboratively and collectively — no solo heroes here.
* Be able to commit time for meetings, preparation, and occasional ad hoc support.
* You must be legally eligible to serve as a company director in the UK.
* You must declare any actual or potential conflicts of interest.
Support
We know governance roles can feel daunting. We’re committed to making leadership accessible — we’ll provide an induction, reasonable adjustments, and opportunities to build your governance skills.
This is an unpaid voluntary role. Reasonable expenses for Board work will be reimbursed when pre-agreed.
