Open Door Scotland is a youth homelessness charity supporting young people aged 16–25 who are at risk of, or experiencing, homelessness. Many of the young people we work with are care experienced, face significant challenges relating to mental health, social isolation, and access to education, training, and employment. We provide accommodation alongside practical, emotional, and developmental support that enables young people to stabilise their lives and move towards independence.
Our Ambition
We are focused on strengthening our foundations so we can grow responsibly and sustain our impact. This means clear strategy, strong leadership, effective risk management, and robust governance. Non-Executive Directors are essential to delivering this ambition.
The Non-Executive Director Role
Non-Executive Directors are collectively responsible for the governance and strategic direction of Open Door Scotland. This is a role of responsibility and trust, with legal duties and accountability for the organisation’s financial health, compliance, and long-term sustainability. Non-Executive Directors do not manage day-to-day operations. Instead, they provide oversight, constructive challenge, and support to the CEO and senior leadership, ensuring the organisation is well run, values-led, and focused on its charitable objectives. We are looking for Non-Executive Directors who will prepare well, contribute constructively, and engage actively in board discussions and decision-making.
