The Young Women’s Trust Development Board was founded by people who share our belief that all young women deserve a fair chance. They are committed to using their connections, time and influence to support hundreds of disadvantaged young women into work and out of poverty. To do this, they are focused on raising vital funds and helping us grow our networks.
In 2017 we have ambitious plans to increase our impact as a charity and we are looking for a new Chair for our Development Board to enable us to achieve our goals.
We are seeking a dynamic leader to Chair our Young Women’s Trust Development Board. As the Chair you will lead a dedicated group of people, from a range of sectors, to develop creative ideas and implement ways to raise our profile and raise vital funds. You will have strong leadership skills and a drive to use your influence, connections and resources to transform the lives of disadvantaged young women.

The role

We are looking for a Chair based in or near London. The role is voluntary, however reasonable travel expenses may be claimed. We ask Development Board members to commit to four meetings per year; usually held in Central London in addition to occasional evening events and tasks and actions between meetings.
If you are interested in taking on a new challenge in 2017 to benefit young women we would like to hear from you.
Please send your CV and a short cover paragraph on why you would be interested in being the Chair to Laura Perkins by Tuesday, 28th February.
