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 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.

- Travel costs reimbursed
- The option of joining board meetings remotely
- Discussing your accessibility needs and making reasonable adjustments as needed.
Experience of being a Trustee is not essential - if you are interested in becoming a Trustee of Global 50/50, we'd be happy to discuss with you the commitment required.
Closing Date: 30th April 2025
Global 50/50 wants to fast-forward the pace of change to make global health more gender equal.

Willowbrook Farm Charity
Willowbrook Farm Charity exists to create nurturing educational and cultural spaces in the Oxfordshire countryside that are welcoming, inclusive, and accessible to communities who have been historically underrepresented in rural environments — including people from racialised backgrounds, neurodivergent individuals, and young people with diverse learning needs.
In partnership with Willowbrook Farm (www willowbrookfarm co uk), where we host our activities, we aim to build a nationally recognised centre of excellence that supports personal growth, wellbeing, and connection with nature. Through hands-on learning, community building, and cultural exchange, we empower individuals and groups to explore sustainable living, ethical land stewardship, and the transformative potential of nature-based education.
Our Values
Community
We foster a culture of care, connection, and belonging. We create space for people to come together in joy, learning, and mutual support, building relationships rooted in respect and shared purpose.
Stewardship
We honour the land as a living system and recognise that the wellbeing of people and nature are deeply interconnected. We are committed to nurturing the next generation of ethical and responsible stewards — who care for the earth, each other, and future generations.
Equity & Inclusion
We are dedicated to removing barriers so that people of all identities, backgrounds, and abilities can access and participate fully in experiences of farming, countryside living, and sustainability. We celebrate diversity and work to create welcoming spaces where everyone can thrive.
Connection with Nature
We centre our actions on a deep respect for the natural world. We believe in restoring and nurturing the bond between humans and nature, creating a place where both can flourish in harmony.
Job description
We are thrilled to welcome a Video Editor at a pivotal time for our charity. After a challenging period of inactivity due to the impacts of Covid, we are excited to embark on a new chapter, as we are ready to restart our activities in 2025 and to develop our projects and create a positive impact in our community.
This is a unique opportunity for those eager to be part of a project evolving from its early stages to the launching of new initiatives. The volunteer will have ample opportunity to collaborate with us and help shape our videos from the ground up.
We are seeking a talented Video Editor who can create engaging videos for our new upcoming website and fundraising campaigns.
We appreciate volunteers with experience in editing videos for fundraising purposes, but we are open to those who do not necessarily have the experience but wish to learn.
As a volunteer-led charity, it’s essential for us to find someone who understands the importance of being part of our team and engaging in the entire creative process. Therefore, we will prioritise applications from volunteers who wish to commit to a long-term partnership and want to be an integral member of our team.
What do you need to become our Video Editor?
Essential:
· 3+ years professional experience with Video Editing and ability to create engaging and professional videos.
· Creativity and experience in developing effective videos for marketing.
· Experience in developing effective videos for fundraising purposes.
· Experience in developing effective videos for promoting projects and charitable causes.
Desirable
· Have worked with videos for fundraising campaigns in the past.
By getting involved you will gain:
· A chance to expand your skills and unleash your creativity.
· This is an excellent opportunity for professionals eager to utilise their talents to address community needs and contribute to reducing inequality.
· Additionally, you can enhance your portfolio and potentially work on your own projects in collaboration with the charity.
· Experiment with new techniques and receive constructive feedback on your work.
Location: Fully Remote. But we welcome those who wish to come and visit the farm at least once to understand more about us. Travel expenses covered.
Commitment:
The estimate of time needed is 3 hours a week, but we can be flexible and work with you to find hours that fit ours and your schedule, hours will eventually reduce once most of the branding work is done and the new website is launched - all help is much appreciated!
As a volunteer-led charity, we prioritise volunteers who want to become part of our team of volunteers rather than those looking for a temporary project.
How to apply:
Please send your CV, cover letter and link to your portfolio demonstrating your experience with video editing and why you would like to get involved with our projects.
Interviews will be scheduled as the applications come in. Candidates must have the legal right to work in the UK at the time of application.
