Join our Board as a Trustee and be a Changemaker for the Chilterns

The Chiltern Society is dedicated to preserving and enhancing the natural beauty, heritage, and accessibility of the Chilterns. As we continue to expand our impact, we are seeking to strengthen our Board of Trustees with individuals who bring diverse expertise, fresh perspectives, and a passion for the area.

We have a number of openings for Trustees, including two key roles:

General (Company) Secretary
This pivotal role includes managing board agendas, recording accurate minutes, and fulfilling the duties of a Company Secretary. Candidates with legal expertise or previous experience as a Company Secretary are especially encouraged to apply.

Volunteer Lead
This role involves chairing the Volunteer Committee and leading efforts to enhance the experience of our 1,000+ volunteers. Experience in professional HR or volunteer management will be a distinct advantage.

Why join us?

As a Trustee, you will play a critical role in a volunteer-led organization that is making a tangible difference across the Chilterns. This is a chance to work collaboratively, contribute your expertise, and represent the diverse communities of our region.

What We’re Looking For

We welcome applications from individuals with experience or enthusiasm in:

• Nature restoration
• Heritage preservation
• Community access and engagement
• In addition to these two specific roles, we are always actively looking for Trustees and volunteers who can add value to our work and represent the wider Chilterns community. Whether you're stepping into your first Trustee role or bringing seasoned experience, we want your unique skills to help the Chiltern Society thrive.
