About the Jon Egging Trust (JET)

At JET, we support vulnerable young people to get back on track and realise their potential; more than 40,000 young people right across the UK to date, and there’s so much more we can do. We’re an organisation that really values its people and we’re immensely proud that our team culture is based on caring and raising each other up. 

Jon Egging Trust – Inspiration, Teamwork, Leadership, Employability

Why you should join the JET family:

JET is in an exciting stage of expansion and national recognition, and we are always looking for fresh thinking and positive ideas to enhance and further energise our committed board of trustees and committees. Being a Trustee of JET is a rewarding and fulfilling role:

· Opportunity to work with and learn from like-minded, experienced and accomplished trustee colleagues 

· Driving towards a common goal of helping grow the quality and reach of a brilliant and unique, established charity  

· Networking opportunities among JETs corporate, military and individual partners and supporters as we develop our work with and through them

The most effective Boards benefit from individuals from a diverse range of backgrounds, experiences and skill sets. Across the JET team we cultivate a culture of inclusion that respects individual strengths, views, and experiences. We believe that our differences enable us to be a better team – one that makes better decisions, drives innovation, and delivers better outcomes for our young people.

What the Finance Trustee role entails:

We are looking for a dedicated and passionate Trustee to join our Board and become a member and chair of our Finance Committee (FC), with specific skills and expertise in financial management, ideally bringing charity finance experience.

Our Trustee Board is the legal entity, which is ultimately responsible for everything that the Trust does and is accountable for the organisation's financial regularity and all other aspects of propriety. Trustee Council is made up a group of volunteers who hold the financial and legal responsibility for everything the Trust does. They bring a wide range of knowledge, expertise and experience to the charity and are responsible for approving our strategic plans, annual budget and Annual Report & Accounts.

The Finance Committee (FC) is a sub-committee of our Board that assures we have suitable financial systems and controls in place, that they are working effectively, and that risks are properly identified, managed, mitigated and reported. FC is currently chaired by a long serving member of the Board.

What we ask of you and your time:

Our Board meets at least every 3 months remotely/virtually via Teams. Board meetings tend to be held on weekday evenings lasting approximately 1.5 hours, normally starting at 6pm. Board papers are circulated 1-week prior to each meeting to enable plenty of time to read through and ask questions prior to the meeting.

Our Finance Committee meet at least every 3 months, around a week in advance of the Board. Again, these meetings are remote/virtual, generally lasting 1.5 hours, normally on a weekday afternoon.

The role is meant to be compatible with a full-time job and caring responsibilities, and we always aim for trustee input to be as flexible and time-efficient as possible. We are always open to new ideas to make our Board and Committee rhythm accessible and reasonable for our members.

We welcome individuals who have:

· Strong empathy with JET’s mission.

· Significant experience of strategic financial leadership, ideally including charity finances.

· Demonstrable experience of working at a senior leadership team or Board level.

· Good, unprejudiced judgement and strategic vision.

· An understanding, awareness, and acceptance of the legal duties, responsibilities and liabilities of trusteeship.

Interested candidates are invited to submit a CV and a cover letter explaining how they could contribute to JET’s lifechanging work and why they would like to join as a Trustee. For more information please take a look at our latest Trustee Annual Report: JET Trustee Annual Report and Accounts FY23 Signed

If you have any additional questions or would like an informal chat with the Director of Operations and Finance, please contact through our website

Closing date is 15th October at 23.30

Interviews will be 30th October 2024

Child and adult at risk protection policy statement:

The Trust takes its extended moral and legal duty of care very seriously in relation to children, young people, staff and volunteers.

What skills and experience are you looking for? 

We are seeking a highly organised, methodical, and detail-focused individual with a solid understanding of charity governance, ideally gained through a leadership role in the voluntary sector. The Honorary Secretary will play a key role in preparing and supporting the AGM and elections, monitoring terms of service, and acting as the guardian of the Constitution. A key requirement is a strong working knowledge of the Constitution, or a willingness to develop this knowledge, in order to advise the membership, Board, and central team on operating in line with it.

They oversee and steer the vision, strategy and progress of the Trust, drawing on their own knowledge, skills and networks.

As a small but ambitious charity we are seeking individuals for the role whose experience and skills will complement those of our existing board members and enable the Trust to continue to expand.

Remuneration: The role of Trustee is not accompanied by any financial remuneration.

Time commitment: Six Board meetings per year. Approximately 12 days in total including board meetings, and additional meetings, discussion and preparation.

What we are looking for

We are looking for people willing to bring energy, enthusiasm and commitment to the role, and who will broaden the diversity of thinking on our board.
