Chairperson for Bristol Animal Rescue Centre
Voluntary – unremunerated • Location: Bristol • c6 meetings a year plus AGM and oversight of committees such as RemCo and Finance
Bristol Animal Rescue Centre (Bristol A.R.C) has cared for Bristol’s animals for over 135 years, helping, healing and homing those in greatest need at their Rescue Centre in the heart of the city. Their mission is to ensure animals in need in the community receive the compassion, care and respect they deserve. Through the work of their outreach services, veterinary clinic and rehoming centre they help, heal and find homes for thousands of animals every year, as well as offering hands-on support and welfare advice to the people who love them.
Bristol A.R.C is about to embark on a huge project and, after more than one hundred years of rescuing and rehoming animals from its site on Albert Road, they are preparing for a monumental change: they are planning to move. The historic Albert Road site has served as the home to the stray and unwanted pets of Bristol since 1901. With city growth and regeneration, the organisation is now navigating development works and related challenges, and is seeking a new Chair to work with the Board and organisation as they look for a new site and fundraise to enable this transition.
As Chair, you will have the opportunity to influence strategy and directly support our teams in rescue, rehabilitation, and rehoming of animals in care. You will serve on the governing body of the charity and, alongside fellow Trustees, provide governance that supports the CEO and senior management in the successful running of the organisation.
We are particularly interested in candidates with relevant experience in property, construction, building works and development projects.
