Trustees

What an Opportunity!

Opportunity International believe that financial training and services equips people to build sustainable businesses. This gives them the chance to work their own way out of poverty and provide a better future for their family and communities.

An exciting opportunity has now arisen for new Trustees to join the OIUK Board of Trustees. The new Trustees will support the governance and strategic leadership of OIUK, and alongside standard commitments, have passion and commitment to the cause.

Candidates with experience in one or more of the following areas would be of particular interest;

• finance,
• marketing and communications,
• micro-financing,
• banking,
• programme delivery,
• Government institutions.

OIUK is led by their Christian mandate, providing life-changing financial training and services to some of the poorest communities in the world.  This is a wonderful opportunity for you to use your skills for a meaningful impact across the globe.

The Board meets once a quarter, usually in London or Oxford, and the meetings last about 3-4 hours. Papers are distributed in advance and take about 2-3 hours to review. Other meetings take place by telephone/Zoom as the need arises.

For more information, please contact Adam Stacey, Managing Director, Charisma Charity Recruitment. Your expression of interest should be submitted through the Charisma website and include your CV and supporting statement.
