We are very keen to welcome new members to our community in the following roles
Trustee – IT and Digital Systems Specialist
We are looking for a new Trustee to join our Board, and this time we're hoping to find someone with a background in IT and digital systems.
As a Trustee, you would be helping to make sure the Brightwell is secure, modern and making the most of technology, so that we can keep growing and reaching even more people who need our support. It is a voluntary role, with quarterly Board meetings and around six hours of your time per month.
You don't need experience of charity trusteeship; full training and induction is provided. What matters most is a passion for what we do and some expertise in areas like cyber security, digital strategy, website management or data systems.
Is this you, or maybe a family member, a colleague or a friend? if anyone springs to mind, we'd love to hear from them.
