LOOKING FOR NEW VOLUNTARY BOARD MEMBERS

BCHA is a dynamic, charitable housing association providing housing, support and employability & skills services to people who are experiencing homeless or other forms of social need. We manage around 1400 short-stay and long-stay homes in Plymouth, Exeter, Yeovil, Wiltshire, Dorset and Bournemouth-Christchurch-Poole with a strong mission to provide accommodation and services for those most in need.

We have just launched our new 5-year Strategic Plan and welcome you to join us work towards our exciting new vision that everyone has a home and the opportunity to thrive. We are currently seeking to recruit non-executive board members to fill current and future vacancies. These roles are unpaid.

Along with a passion to make a difference, we are especially looking to attract candidates who have strong experience of any or all of the following:

• Asset Management/Stock investment planning

• Landlord Health & Safety management

• Leading and developing customer-focussed repairs services

• Leading and developing housing services

If you have the right motivation and skills to offer and want to join us on our journey in delivering our new Strategic Plan, BCHA would love to hear from you! If you are interested in joining our board and help the organisation make a big difference to the lives of those we serve, please get in touch.

Our Board seeks to be representative of all sections of society and we welcome applications from individuals to strengthen the diversity of its membership. We are particularly keen to increase the number of women on our board.

Board membership is non-executive and unpaid although the role does carry legal responsibilities. Expected time commitment is typically half a day per month with meetings being mainly on-line with away days being in-person. Reasonable expenses will be reimbursed.
