Could you be a Trustee?

Could you be a trustee?

Change attitudes. Join us. 

We’re looking to recruit a new trustee from Northern Ireland to be part of our board.  The board is responsible for the overall governance of Parkinson’s UK and includes 12 volunteers, with representatives from each of the four UK countries.

Trusteeship is primarily a legal and fiduciary role with trustees working at the highest levels of strategic and analytical thinking to shape, and continually monitor, the work of the charity.  This is a really exciting time for the charity as we enter a period of strategic change and the guidance and leadership from the board will be crucial to the charity achieving its ambitious goals.  You can read more about our strategy to transform the future at: http://www.parkinsons.org.uk/content/transforming-future.

Being a trustee offers the chance to direct the work of our charity and make a real difference for people affected by Parkinson’s. Trustees also have the opportunity to join other working groups to get involved in different aspects of our work.

Job satisfaction

Trustees are unpaid, but reasonable out-of-pocket expenses are reimbursed. Our trustees say they get enormous job satisfaction from their role. We are looking for candidates who can think strategically and in the best interests of our diverse charity.
