Committee members volunteer roles in hanwell, greater london
The Rambert School is seeking three new Trustees to help guide and support their world-renowned, student-centred institution as they continue to lead in dance education. They are particularly keen to hear from individuals with experience in Higher Education and academic governance, finance, human resources, or fundraising, who are passionate about contributing to the future of a globally recognised centre of excellence.
Who we are
Rambert School’s mission is to provide world-leading conservatoire training and education in ballet and contemporary dance, embracing individuality and innovation, while being deeply rooted in tradition and technical rigour. Our student body is purposefully small but diverse, with just 45 undergraduates from all over the world accepted each year to benefit from intimate and intensive training.
The role
They believe that dance, choreography, and creativity have the power to transform the lives of young people and society as a whole. They are looking for individuals who share this belief and who bring passion, lived experience, and strong interpersonal skills to join their welcoming Board of Trustees. They are committed to building a diverse Board that reflects both the population of Greater London and their international student community. They strongly encourage applications from underrepresented groups, including those who identify as male, LGBTQ+ individuals, people from diverse ethnic backgrounds, and those with disabilities or other historically underrepresented experiences. A more diverse Board will enable them to better represent and support their staff and students.
Thank you!
Join Global 50/50 as a Trustee
Are you Board level individual with a drive for gender equality? Global 50/50, a global leader in evidence-driven gender justice, is seeking additional Trustees for their Board.
Since 2017, Global Health 50/50 has been a trusted, evidence-driven authority and research initiative driving accountability for gender equality in the global health sector. Our work has helped to catalyse change across the policies, practices, and leadership within our sample of 200 organisations working in global health, and beyond – establishing a global benchmark for progress and transparency for equality.
The forces driving gender inequality don’t stop at the borders of health. That’s why Global Health 50/50 has evolved into Global 50/50 allowing us to take our proven model into new sectors, while staying grounded in the evidence-informed, change-focused work we’re known for. With a broader mandate and a growing team, we maintain an unwavering commitment to driving gender justice across the systems that shape our lives.
Global 50/50 has a bold new vision: to expose and address gender inequality across global systems in three powerful pillars:
- Global Health 50/50: Continuing to lead on gender and health equity.
- Global Justice 50/50: Launching mid-2025, with an interim report on the judiciary and a full Global Gender & Justice Report in the autumn.
- Global Finance 50/50: Launching in 2026, with a focus on gender accountability across financial systems.
Each initiative builds on GH5050’s proven methodology: rigorous, transparent research that not only highlights disparities but activates data for accountability and drives reform.
The role of trustees
As a Trustee, you will help shape Global 50/50’s Strategic Direction: providing a sounding board and balance to the executive team, guidance on long-term planning and external engagement. Ultimately, with your fellow trustees, responsible for the sustainability of the organisation, you will help ensure and support the executive team to deliver:
Good Governance & Compliance: Oversee financial health, risk management, and adherence to regulatory requirements.
Financial Sustainability: Support fundraising efforts, donor engagement, and responsible financial oversight.
Global 50/50’s Influence & Visibility: Act as an ambassador to strengthen partnerships and advocacy impact.

We are committed to equity, justice, diversity and inclusion across our organisation. This includes taking measures to support your application and your ability to participate in board meetings, including but not limited to:
- Travel costs reimbursed
- The option of joining board meetings remotely
- Discussing your accessibility needs and making reasonable adjustments as needed.
