Railway Mission is seeking two values-led Trustees with strategic experience in either finance, fundraising or governance to strengthen its Board and further the charity’s vision and positive impact.
Railway Mission’s dedicated chaplaincy team provides confidential and impartial pastoral and emotional support to the railway family and members of the public affected by railway operations, especially during an individual’s times of loneliness, stress, depression, bereavement or illness.
Potential candidates for the Trustee roles must demonstrate selflessness, integrity, objectivity, accountability, openness and honesty while also possessing ambassadorial, advocacy, leadership and chairing skills. In addition, they will be passionate about connecting with people and organisations to ensure viable and diverse income streams for Railway Mission.
Newly appointed Trustees should be willing to exercise their specialist expertise and experience to support the Board’s decision-making, which may involve writing or scrutinising board papers, leading discussions, focusing on key issues and providing advice and guidance on new initiatives.
The role of Trustee is a voluntary, unpaid, non-executive appointment and each of our Trustees needs to be a Christian who agrees with our Statement of Faith.
To fulfil the Trustee role, successful candidates will be required to commit to approximately one day per month, with the capacity to flex upwards should the need arise, to attend in-person or virtual Board meetings, sub-committees, the Annual General Meeting and annual Trustee event.
