Letchworth Foodbank is seeking an inspiring and strategic Chair of the Board to lead the next chapter of our growth. We have a clear mission: the prevention or relief of poverty in Letchworth, Hitchin and Baldock in particular, but not exclusively, by providing emergency food supplies and financial support to individuals in need and/or charities or other organisations working to relieve poverty. Receiving donations and grants of over £200,000 per annum, the Foodbank distributes over 40 tonnes of food and £50,000 of food vouchers every year to those that need it most. Our strategy is not to stand still, but to increase our reach and impact, and we require a Chair that shares our ambitions and will help drive a clear strategy forwards with the Trustees, working closely with the Foodbank Director. What are we looking for? A Chair with knowledge of and commitment to tackling and relieving poverty. Experience in leadership, governance, and board-level roles (charity or voluntary sector preferred). Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to inspire and unite people. An understanding of the challenges faced by small charities and grassroots organisations. A strategic thinker with sound judgment and an inclusive leadership style. An understanding of safeguarding, equality, and community engagement principles. Experience of financial management and a broad understanding of charity finance issues.
