Historically it has also had a Programmes sub-Committee / Small Group which scrutinises and advises on the programmes which the charity supports, but this has evolved to become a sub-Committee of Five Talents International called the PQC - Programme Quality Committee.

Typically the Chair and two members of the UK Board are elected to serve on the Five Talents International (FTI) Board. This currently involves two in-person (or Zoom) meetings and two conference calls each year. FTI owns the licence to the brand name ‘Five Talents’ and sets overall strategy and mission for the different Five Talents entities, and has a particular focus on the programmes.

The Executive team consists of nine dedicated staff who work out of a small office in central London.

The usual process is for a trustee candidate to have an initial meeting with the Chair or CEOs, followed (if both parties wish) by your submission of a CV and short statement of interest which is shared with the Board.
