Overview
Thrombosis UK, a registered charity and the leading UK charity for blood clot awareness and support, is seeking a Trustee with Financial Expertise to join the Board and help shape our strategic and financial direction.
What difference will you make?
Our trustees guide the charity to stay true to its mission and to use resources wisely. We are refreshing the board during a period of change, with new co-Chairs and outgoing long-serving trustees, and we are looking for individuals who ask the right questions to ensure sustainable decision-making that benefits those we support.
What are we looking for?
We are seeking a Trustee with Financial Expertise who would:
* Lead our governance around Audit and Risk
* Provide financial oversight, ensuring sustainability and compliance
* Advise on strategic investments and budget planning
Person Specification
We welcome applicants from diverse backgrounds with the following expertise:
* Experience as a senior financial professional (e.g., Finance Director, CFO)
* Knowledge of charity financial regulations and reporting (SORP preferred)
* Strategic financial planning and governance skills
All candidates should demonstrate:
* Commitment to Thrombosis UK’s mission and values
* Ability to work collaboratively and think strategically
* Commitment to Nolan’s seven principles of public life: selflessness, integrity, objectivity, accountability, openness, honesty and leadership
What will you be doing?
We are ambitious to grow our impact and are starting a strategic review to develop a new five-year plan. The board recently completed a skills audit and identified a need for trustees with financial expertise. We are seeking to recruit a trustee with financial experience to join the Board and help set our strategic and financial direction. The board has recognised the need for strategic guidance and has agreed to create a Finance, Audit and Risk sub-committee to advise the board. We envisage this trustee leading that sub-committee.
