Our priorities and approach

    • The human rights framework• The criminal legal system

The A B Charitable Trust exists to promote human dignity and defend the human rights of the most marginalised and excluded people. Our approach is founded on liberal principles of universalism and human rights. We believe in justice, not charity. For us, this means supporting work that promotes rather than diminishes dignity. It also means supporting efforts to change the systems that shape the lives of marginalised and excluded people in pernicious ways. We have a particular interest in work that uses the law to address inequities and injustices.

Our journey

The Trust was founded 33 years ago to promote and defend human dignity. Since then, we have given £33.4m to organisations, and this year we will spend some £8m. We have significantly increased our grantmaking over recent years and intend to continue a trajectory of growth. 

Over the years the board has developed into a mix of both family and independent trustees, all of whom bring a wealth of experiences, skills and a shared passion for the work. Our talented executive team brings a high level of knowledge, expertise and skill both around grant making and our priority areas.

 

About the role and you

The key purpose of this role is to work closely and collaboratively with the trustees and executive teams to:

·Provide strategic leadership and management 

·Have oversight / management of ABCT’s grants portfolio and our partnerships, ensuring we meet our priorities.

·Develop and maintain relationships with key stakeholders.

·Build a culture of learning and best practice in ABCT’s work.

The new Director will be critical in shaping how the Trust continues to grow and develop, so candidates will need to be able to demonstrate a relevant leadership and management background and a passion for the work. 

This could be the right opportunity for a range of potential candidates. We really want to hear from candidates from a wide range of backgrounds and we particularly encourage people with lived experience to apply.
