Citizens Advice Esher & District is a well-established local advice charity that is seeking a HR professional to joins its trustee board and help deliver effective people management policies and plans. If you’re excited to help us have the right team in place to meet the advice needs of our local community in Surrey, we would love to hear from you.

- Provide strategic and occasional operational advice on issues such as recruitment, employment contracts and remuneration
- Take a lead in reviewing the charity’s people management policies and procedures
- Advise on workforce planning and engagement to deliver our short and long term objectives
- Chair our Personnel sub-committee, setting the agenda for each six-monthly meeting and helping to prepare agenda papers
As a member of the Trustee Board, you will be responsible for:
● Maintaining an awareness of how our charity is operating
● Reading papers for Board meetings and attending six meetings per year
● Working on specific projects with other trustees or staff to further the strategic objectives of the charity
● Taking an active discussion during Board meetings and working with other trustees to:
- set policy and strategy direction, set targets and evaluate the performance of the charity
- ensure that all the finances and supporting financial control systems of the charity are in order
- monitor the financial position of the charity ensuring that it operates within its means and objectives
- monitor how well the service meets the needs of the local community
- ensure that the service plans for the recruitment and turnover of staff and volunteers
- review its own work and how effectively it operates including action for improvement
Person Specification
We need someone who either lives, works or studies in Elmbridge who has:
- HR experience with current knowledge of UK employment law, policy and practice, including compensation and benefits
- A commitment to the Citizens Advice organisation
- An understanding of the differences between managing the rights of employees and managing the rights of volunteers
- A willingness to devote the necessary time and effort
We are particularly keen to achieve a more diverse Board of Trustees and welcome applications from all sections of the community. Experience of Citizens Advice work is not required.
Time commitment
Our Trustees are expected to attend six board meetings each year. These normally take place on a Monday evening, alternating between 5-7pm and 7pm-9pm, at our office in Esher.

What difference will you make?
People with good local knowledge and strategic vision can really help us to develop a service that meets the changing advice needs of our community.
More specifically, your input will help us to recruit and retain staff and volunteers and achieve a sustainable future. Without this, we risk having to cut our service to local residents and workers - and the most vulnerable members of society will have nowhere else to turn.
What's in it for you?
Citizens Advice is a well-respected and influential organisation. This is an opportunity to help develop this much-needed charity at a local level, making a real difference to people's lives.
As well as intellectual stimulation, the role will provide you with practical management experience of the voluntary sector to help develop your career.
Initial induction and training takes place in-house, online and through peer support but there some opportunity to attend national Citizens Advice conferences. Travel expenses to any events are paid.
We are a friendly Board, keen to welcome new members.

About Us:
Evolve Counselling is a long-established charitable social enterprise, providing low cost, affordable or funded mental health counselling to adults in Cambridgeshire and surrounding counties. Our professional counselling community is made up of 50 – 60 qualified self-employed practitioners, working part-time to deliver talking therapies both online and in person.
We deliver around 500 counselling sessions per month to a broad range of individuals, many of whom would not otherwise be able to access therapeutic support. Evolve also provides supervision, reflective practice, critical incident support, and mental health awareness and related training to organisations and businesses large and small.
We are in the early stages of developing ambitious growth and innovation programmes, so this is a perhaps the most interesting time to be part of Evolve since we started in the 1970s. Opportunities for new Trustees to make their mark are considerable.
What We’re Looking For:
We are searching for an experienced HR specialist who can support our board, committees, and the CEO as we move through our next strategic stage of consolidation, then growth. Although long-established and successful, Evolve is reshaping itself and your HR expertise will be instrumental in positioning our charity to successfully meet the ever-growing demands and opportunities for supporting good mental health in our communities. Please note, a background in counselling is NOT a prerequisite for this role. Training will be available in general charity governance and in specific areas such as charity finance.
Your skills and knowledge, whether gained in the charity or commercial worlds, in a corporate HR Department, or a specialist consultancy, will help us to plan and “do the right thing” for our small staff and our self-employed counsellors, as we grow.
Including quarterly board meetings, committee sessions (at present virtual), a face-to-face AGM event, away days, and regular meetings with our CEO and the trustees, we anticipate a flexible time commitment of around 0-5 hours per month
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
