Who they’re looking for

Our client is seeking a new Trustee with a public affairs background who is passionate about their vision, mission and values, to support the board and team in achieving their charitable aims.

They are looking for an individual with a strong background in the field of public affairs. This could have been gained through a position as an MP, through another role in Parliament or engaging with policymakers on behalf of the public, private or charity sector. Applicants should also have a strong interest in animal welfare and science, and be willing to advocate on the charity’s behalf.

Previous experience of being a Trustee is not necessary as a full induction and ongoing support will be provided.

Equality, diversity and inclusion

They want everyone they work with, as a colleague, volunteer, supporter, or someone they support, to feel included and that they belong at the organisation. They are committed to building a diverse organisation that represents the communities they serve and ensuring inclusion in everything they do. They will support you to make sure that you bring your whole self and can be at your best.

Board meetings and time commitment

The Board ordinarily meets four times per year in March, May, August and November. Two of these meetings are held remotely via video call on a Saturday, and two are held in person in London across weekends. In addition, Trustees are encouraged to join a Committee relevant to their area of expertise which meets at least once per quarter via video call. An appropriate time commitment will be required over the course of the year for preparative work between meetings. Trustees are also invited to attend occasional charity events and join recruitment panels on an ad hoc basis.

Following a probationary period where Trustee-elects attend at least 3 board meetings, appointed Trustees serve a three-year term, with the option to renew for a further three years.

This is a relatively new Trustee role for the charity, therefore you will be expected to play a key role in shaping strategy and sharing knowledge and expertise with other Trustees. Trusteeship is an unremunerated position, though reasonable out-of-pocket expenses will be paid.

If this opportunity to join a small but ambitious charity appeals to you, and you have public affairs expertise, enthusiasm and a commitment to their vision of a world where animal-free, human-specific technologies secure breakthroughs for patients then they’d like to hear from you.

We reserve the right to close this vacancy early if we receive sufficient applications for the role. Therefore, if you are interested, please submit your application as early as possible.
