Company Description
The Impact Network is a UK charity built to give small, locally-led conservation and community development organisations the visibility, funding access, and long-term support they need to thrive. We connect these organisations through one shared platform, and support them with toolkits so that their work can be more easily discovered, funded, and joined by supporters and partners worldwide.
If you care about grassroots impact reaching the people actually doing the work, this is where that happens.
Role Description
We're recruiting founding trustees to help shape The Impact Network from the ground up: a genuine opportunity to influence the direction, culture, and governance of a new charity. This is a voluntary, unpaid position, fully remote, with a realistic time commitment of a few hours a month plus quarterly board meetings. As a trustee, you'll provide strategic oversight, help ensure sound financial and legal governance, and support decision-making as we grow from the ground up. You'll also act as an ambassador for the foundation, and depending on your background, may contribute directly to fundraising, partnerships, or communications strategy. It's a chance to make a tangible difference to grassroots conservation and development work worldwide, using skills and experience you already have.
