                                                        Contract type: Full time
                                                     
                                                
                            We are looking to recruit a Trustee with Business or Financial Management experience to join our small and friendly team at a pivotal and exciting point in our development.
What difference will you make?
We will benefit from your input and advice in the development of the company strategy, business-planning and the diversity of our organisation, helping us to take bold, innovative steps while remaining resilient in a rapidly changing landscape.
What are we looking for?
We are interested in candidates who may have a wider range of skills than purely financial. For us, finance is not an isolated practice. It is connected to other aspects of our mission and is part of all discussions around the creation, production and dissemination of our work. We therefore welcome expressions of interest from candidates with an entrepreneurial background whose principal practice might sit within the commercial sector, including the technology and digital industries, but have financial experience as part of that practice.
