Barking Mad Dog Rescue are seeking to recruit two trustees to help us take our charity forward. We have big ambitions.
Who we are
We are a UK registered charity (1160985) that operates two shelters in Constanta district, Romania, with around 350 dogs and puppies. They are cared for by our small, effective Romanian team of paid workers, who run operations there. In the UK, our charity operates through a team of dedicated volunteers. They manage adoptions, fundraising, marketing, social media and charity promotion.
What we do
Dog welfare is low on the political and public agenda in Romania and life is hard for many street dogs, particularly since the introduction of the 2013 killing law. This, alongside poor uptake of spaying/neutering, means an endless stream of stray and abandoned dogs; pregnant mums, puppies, the old, the sick and the surplus to requirements. This is where Barking Mad Dog Rescue steps in. We work in our local community to educate, spay/neuter, rescue and where possible rehome.
We have made huge strides in dog welfare in our local Romanian community over the past ten years of operation. People are: bringing their pets for neutering and encouraging neighbours to do so; reporting sick, injured and abandoned dogs in need to us; caring for street dogs who live nearby; and, in some cases, adopting dogs in need. Since our establishment in 2015, we have rehomed approximately 3,000 dogs in the UK, Germany and other EU countries.
The future – growing our ambitions
This year we have an exciting opportunity to start to build a new more spacious shelter on land we own, which was kindly purchased for us by a generous donor. With this, come opportunities to work more closely with our local community, to have enhanced facilities for our dogs and shelter team, and to expand our ambitions for what we want to achieve as a charity.
Who we are looking for
To support us to take these exciting next steps, we are looking for two additional trustees who are passionate about dog welfare, willing to bring energy, enthusiasm and commitment to the role, and who will broaden the diversity of thinking and expertise on our board. We are particularly hoping to attract trustees with proven business backgrounds and strong business networks and experience, experience of fundraising and/or with construction or large-scale capital projects, who will take a keen interest in understanding about our work, and helping us to grow and thrive.
Personal skills and qualities
· Willingness and ability to understand and accept their responsibilities and liabilities as trustees and to act in the best interests of Barking Mad Dog Rescue.
· Ability to think creatively and strategically, exercise good, independent judgement and work effectively as a board member.
· Effective communication skills and willingness to participate actively in discussion.
· Willingness to bring their expertise and networks to help Barking Mad Dog Rescue determine and deliver its goals
· A strong personal commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion.
· Enthusiasm for our vision and mission.
· Willingness to lead according to our values.
· Commitment to Nolan’s seven principles of public life: selflessness, integrity, objectivity, accountability, openness, honesty and leadership.
Time commitment
· Attending four Board meetings annually (evenings). Meetings are held remotely.
· Providing additional time and expertise via e-mail, ad hoc meetings as relevant
· Membership of working groups where relevant, to support the charity and its projects (time commitment agreed as part of working group set-up)

We make an impactful difference in the lives of children, young people, women and professionals as well as organisations and businesses. There has been a 10% increase in sexual exploitation and sex trafficking against children (NSPCC 2022), and 99% of victims in the commercial sex industry are female (Unseen). We desire to provide free training so as many women and girls are trained, enabling increased protection against this horrific crime.
As a volunteer fundraiser, you’ll be instrumental in the organisation securing the essential funds that allow Emerge Worldwide to reach more people, including supporting and empowering victims and survivors. Your efforts will directly contribute to us offering services to the most vulnerable people.
What are we looking for?
We’re seeking volunteers with experience in fundraising, fundraising research to help drive our fundraising efforts and expand our support network, including sponsorship. Any experience in bid writing is desirable. We are also seeking volunteers who have event planning and project planning experience.
This role will include:

● Supporting the promotion of our fundraising initiatives and activities.
● Assisting with online fundraising efforts.
● Contributing creative fundraising ideas to boost engagement and donations.
● Collaborating with our Social Media team to create engaging content and campaigns that promote our fundraising efforts, increase visibility, and inspire community support.
We are looking for volunteers who have:
● A track record in delivering successful fundraising.
● Experience of fundraising in the charity sector is desirable but not essential.
● Experience in planning successful events and activities.
● Good knowledge of the current fundraising landscape and interest in keeping up to date with fundraising trends.
● Reliable, organised with good timekeeping.
● Able to work independently and proactively as well as in a team.
● Clear and confident in communication.

What you will gain:
This role provides a fantastic opportunity to gain hands-on experience in fundraising, bid writing (where applicable), and event planning. You’ll develop valuable skills in building partnerships, communication, and project management—skills that are highly sought after across many sectors. In addition to gaining practical experience, you’ll be part of a passionate and supportive team, working closely with experienced professionals who are eager to help you grow, share their expertise, and celebrate your achievements.
By volunteering with us, you’ll experience the profound impact of helping your community receive awareness, prevention and interventions that will help safeguard and protect them against sexual exploitation and sex trafficking, as well as empowering and supporting victims and survivors. This is a perfect role for anyone looking to start or advance a career in the charity sector, communications, or event management, as well as for those who want to make a meaningful difference with their skills.
We are a welcoming team, dedicated to creating a positive and engaging volunteer experience where you’ll feel valued, inspired, and empowered to bring your ideas to life.
