Trustee

About the role

We are looking for 2 lay Trustees who are passionate about mental health service provision and public protection to join the Board of Trustees. You will become a charity trustee (company director) and ensure that the public interest and charitable objectives run through all that we do. By lay we mean individuals who are not a current member or employee and who are not from a health or psychological profession.

This is a particularly exciting time to join the organisation as we will be launching our three-year strategy psychotherapy in a changing world in the Autumn of 2024. We want to work with you to craft an achievable delivery plan to sit alongside this strategy; the plan will include developing the member experience, a governance review, and preparing for the new employment rights legislation.

Contributing to the Board s oversight of charitable funds, you will be pivotal in ensuring the organisation demonstrates excellent stewardship of resources, develops its public relations, works in an agile way, and is sustainable for the future. Your background in corporate governance, employment law, or PR would be ideal to help steer the Board and the executive through the new strategy.

Expected time commitment

Five Board meetings per year and one annual general meeting

About you

These are roles for individuals who are open to new ideas and embrace innovation, are motivational and pragmatic, and demonstrate sound commercial and business acumen.

You will enjoy the opportunity to support an important cause where there is a growing demand in society for greater choices of high-quality mental health service provision. You ll work alongside colleagues from diverse backgrounds and collaborate with staff and practitioners. There ll be scope for professional development as well as personal reward in running the charity and mentoring the executive. In short, it is an opportunity to make a real difference.

About the organisation

The organisation is the leading professional body for psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. We represent training organisations and over 9,000 individual therapists - working privately or in the NHS or voluntary sector - offering a wide variety of psychotherapeutic approaches or modalities.

Our charitable objectives are to promote:

• the art and science of psychotherapy and psychotherapeutic counselling for the public benefit

• research in psychotherapy and psychotherapeutic counselling and to disseminate the results of any such research

• high standards of education and training and practice in psychotherapy and psychotherapeutic counselling

• the wider provision of psychotherapy and psychotherapeutic counselling for all sections of the public

Closing date: 5pm on 10 January 2025
