Trustee Role Baptist Union of Great Britain

As a Union of churches, associations and colleges our life together continues to be rich and varied. In all aspects of Baptists Together, including Council, trustee boards, committees and teams, we look to bring together groups and teams of people who can serve in this way in order to make real our mission.

The Trustee Board holds the governance responsibilities for the Baptist Union of Great Britain as a charitable organisation. This includes ensuring that the Core Leadership Team (CLT) is able to meet its strategic direction, and that Council and CLT remain accountable to the churches, as well as the financial and risk management obligations of BUGB as a charitable organisation.

The Trustee Board is made up of the Moderator, the General Secretary, the Honorary Treasurer, and nine other trustees from across the Baptist family, and includes representation from churches, associations and colleges. We currently have two vacancies on our Trustee Board. Please note that this role is carried out on a voluntary basis.

We are looking for people with a wide range of experience, and we are particularly seeking someone with a Financial or Public Issues background to complement and augment the skills of the whole trustee group. In terms of time, we expect this role to require at least one day each month. The appointment is for a three-year term.
