Seeking New Trustees
As a charity the RSN is overseen by a group of trustees and we are now recruiting specific skills to replace those of RSN trustees finishing their current terms of office. In particular we are seeking qualified Legal, HR and Financial professionals and also those who can bring significant knowledge and experience of Diversity & Inclusion, IT / Digital operations, and Fundraising.
This is a voluntary role. Trustees serve a term of three years and may serve two terms. The trustees meet six times a year at Hampton Court Palace. In addition, some trustees serve on our Finance & Investment Committee which meets four times a year in central London and / or working groups as required. Trustees are currently located throughout the UK and reasonable travel expenses are paid.
All trustees play a full role in leading the RSN’s strategic direction and continued development and these positions come at an exciting time as we review the achievements of the last two years, re-establish face-to-face onsite teaching and capitalise on the global online audience attracted during lockdown.
A more detailed role specification is here. The closing date for applications is Friday 8 July. If you are interested in becoming an RSN Trustee, please feel free to contact us for more details, or apply with a copy of your CV and a covering letter explaining why you want to join us, to [email protected]
