This is an exciting time to join PLUS, as we welcomed a new CEO and Chair earlier this year. Our board is committed to building on our strong foundations to ensure PLUS is fit for the future. With a high-quality leadership team, excellent staff levels, and a positive culture, there are already new initiatives underway. We’re eager to bring fresh thinking and new perspectives into our board as we
continue to grow.
we are keen to hear from potential trustees who can work collaboratively to support and scrutinize the executive leadership team and provide strategic direction within a consensus - based decision - making structure. We're looking to appoint up to three new trustees, with a particular focus on those who bring experience and knowledge in the following areas:
- Social Care/ CQC Regulation
- Property/Housing Management
- Finance (Charity/Social Care experience preferred)
- Lived Experience of Supporting family members with learning disabilities
- Welcome expertise in Data/Cyber Security or People/HR
No prior board experience? No problem! We have several experienced trustees in place and welcome new perspectives. We're also keen to ensure our board reflects the diverse community we serve, and we particularly encourage applications from black and minority ethnic backgrounds.
Above all, the most important quality is a commitment to supporting people with learning disabilities and the values of PLUS. If you believe you can make a strong contribution to our organisation, we'd love to hear from you.
The board will meet quarterly through 2025, on Monday evenings from 6pm - 8pm. The meetings are hybrid with trustees joining virtually or in our Lewisham offices. Trustees should expect, on avarage one additional meeting per quarter on their "lead" area. This may be with another trustee and/or executive management, and will be arranged ad hoc at mutual convenience. Our Supportive induction programme will also include a visit to our front-line services.
If this opportunity interests you, please submit your CV along with a brief cover letter outlining suitability for the role to [email protected]. Should you wish to have an informal conversation about the role, feel free to reach our board chair, Gail Emerson, with some suggested times for a discussion.
