Halfway through delivering our current organisational strategy 2023-2026, ‘Women Leading change in times of crisis’ CARE International UK is seeking to appoint up to four additional trustees to our Board and a new Chair of the Board of Trustees. These vacancies have arisen as current trustees and the Chair come to the end of their terms of office.

International development is a complicated environment undergoing significant change. We’re looking for people who understand this context and ideally have experience of being a charity board trustee already.

With a strong core trustee board currently in place, we are looking to bring the following skills, knowledge and experience:

  • Extensive executive charity leadership experience (ideally CEO) in an international context.
  • Leadership in social enterprises, government or not-for-profits, or relevant non- executive experience.
  • Strategic communications experience including PR, media, corporate, social.
  • Director level voluntary fundraising experience.
  • Director level INGO finance experience in a highly contracted environment.
  • Director level organisational development and people experience including anti-racism, feminist leadership, and safeguarding.
  • A corporate/business background including a focus on corporate social responsibility or charity partnerships.
  • Experience in digital and data, ideally in a social justice context.
  • Previous experience as a trustee or non-executive director will be highly regarded.
