We are looking to appoint a Charity Secretary as a key role in the strategy of the organisation and to support the Trustee Board.
What difference will you make?
The role of Secretary is so important to us - not only do we need someone to keep us on track with the duties and keep us viable, but even more significantly, we are looking for someone to help us formulate our vision for the future. The Secretary is a key role in our organisation. Your support and commitment will ensure we continue to provide and extend our range of much-needed support and services to our beneficiaries. As part of our Committee, you will support and shape our work and strategic direction, as well as help us achieve our objectives. This is a vital role, helping ensure we can continue our support for the elderly, disabled, and vulnerable of our community. As a trustee, you will have a real opportunity to offer your unique skill set to help the strategic progression of the organisation.
What are we looking for?
The current Committee has trustees from varied professional backgrounds and as a team together we draw from that experience. Any experience you can bring to the Committee would be appreciated and valued. We are particularly interested in receiving applications from people with experience in secretarial duties.
What will you be doing?
The Company Secretary will help with the organisation and smooth management of the Trustee Board, ensuring that decisions and actions of the Trustee Board are accurately recorded and implemented, and that the Trustees are in compliance with all legal and regulatory obligations and duties, and all relevant internal policies. You will be helping us by writing agenda and minutes for the board as well as offering advice about the charity. You will also help the Chair in completing secretarial duties. As Trustee Board meetings are held in person, attendance in person will be required. A good committee of trustees is key to the success of the organisation and we expect trustees to play a key role in the challenges and goals detailed below To secure long-term funding for the longevity of the organisation which provides a vital service to the community. To move away from diesel operated vehicles and operate a green fleet of vehicles. To secure our own premises from which to operate, to avoid rising landlord rents. We want to recruit someone who is passionate about helping the elderly and vulnerable in our community, to join our Committee of trustees and Council representatives. Our existing trustees are willing to support our new member. We are a not-for-profit organisation heavily supported by committed volunteers and have been running for 27 years.
