Trustee

Whether you're an experienced leader or taking your first steps into governance, we'd love you to take a look at the opportunity. As a Trustee, you'll prepare for and take part in Board meetings, asking important questions to help make key decisions. You'll share legal responsibility for the charity. What you'll get from joining our Board

• the opportunity to guide the strategic direction of a national charity
• the chance to use your knowledge to make a valuable contribution to society
• the forum to develop your skills and knowledge in key areas including principles of governance, financial management, strategic planning and problem solving
We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and especially welcome applicants from young people under 30. These voices are currently under-represented on our Board. As a young people's organisation, we are committed to changing that. All successful applicants will receive a full induction and membership of an inclusive, welcoming Board. We're also looking to strengthen the Board with Trustees who bring strategic insight in one or more of the following areas:
• hospitality leadership
• data strategy, cyber security or business transformation
• proven senior leadership in a school or trust, bringing strong safeguarding leadership experience and well-established professional networks within education to support partnerships and strategic insight
Candidates must be over 16 years of age.

YHA (England & Wales) is recruiting new Trustees to guide us through an exciting and challenging period of transformation. We're looking for people who believe in our mission, can bring fresh perspective, and want to help increase access to the outdoors, nature and heritage.
