Help shape the future of road safety in the UK
IAM RoadSmart is the UK's leading road safety charity, dedicated to making roads safer through education, advocacy and the promotion of advanced driving and riding.
As we enter an exciting new phase of our development, we are looking to strengthen and diversify our Board of Trustees. We are seeking experienced professionals who share our passion for improving road safety and can help guide the organisation as we deliver our strategic ambitions.
We are particularly interested in hearing from individuals with expertise in one or more of the following areas:
- Road safety – transport, mobility, road user behaviour, policy or related practice.
- Human Resources – people strategy, organisational development, reward or culture.
- Finance – strategic financial leadership, audit and assurance, risk management, governance or charity finance.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Previous trustee experience is welcome but not essential. We are looking for individuals who can provide strategic insight, constructive challenge and sound judgement, and who will act as ambassadors for the charity.
The role
As a Trustee, you will work alongside fellow Board members to:
- Provide strategic leadership and oversight.
- Ensure strong governance and financial stewardship.
- Support the Chief Executive and Senior Leadership Team.
- Help IAM RoadSmart achieve its charitable objectives and long-term ambitions.
The Board meets regularly at our office in Welwyn Garden City. While Trustees are encouraged to attend in person where possible, hybrid and virtual attendance is available for some meetings.
