Use your skills to help steer the direction of the Trust.

Fees: circa £5379 pa 

Experience and background

  • We don’t require previous Board experience – training and support will be provided, but you must have some understanding of the role of Boards and Board members.

  • We welcome applicants with the appropriate skills and experience from all ages and backgrounds. We are an inclusive organisation and embrace diversity and we want our Board members to reflect that.

  • Our Board members come from all walks of life; you may have picked up your experience from the private or not-for-profit sectors.

About the Trust

We are committed to improving the lives of both our residents and those in the communities in which we operate, investing in town centre regeneration as well as new homes. We have a workforce of nearly 200 staff and our annual turnover last year was just under £31.5m.
