Pembrokeshire, United Kingdom Pembrokeshire County Council Full time

**PAVS seeks new Chairperson to lead the Association**

**_ How would you like to lead an organisation focused on delivering support and making a difference in Pembrokeshire?_**

We are looking for a person who cares about our people and thrives on building relationships to chair our Board.

PAVS (Pembrokeshire Association of Voluntary Services) is the County Voluntary Council (CVC) for Pembrokeshire. It is a company limited by guarantee and registered charity.

We are specialists in supporting individuals, voluntary and community groups, social enterprises and third sector initiatives who in turn enable and help people in our County to access the information, support, advice or community group they need.

**_ Are you passionate about supporting people, and able to collaborate across various groups to co-produce solutions to difficult issues? If so, read on _**

PAVS is looking for a new Chairperson. This is a non-remunerated position and one that adds value to the communities and people of Pembrokeshire.

This role may be attractive to someone who has had experience of working with committees, and has experience of strategic planning, plus skills in budget setting. The role requires an understanding of the governance and financial standards set down by Companies House and the Charity Commission.

**_ What does a Chair of PAVS look like?_**

The Chair of the Board works closely with the Chief Officer of PAVS, and provides a lead in strategic matters and financial planning, supported by the Board. A real passion for the work of the third sector in Pembrokeshire will be important, along with a good knowledge and understanding of the County, its people, places, challenges and opportunities.

PAVS is a company limited by guarantee and a charity. It has a board of 10 Directors/Trustees, with three of these positions - the Chair, Vice Chair and Trustee with Special Responsibility for Finance - being appointed by open recruitment and interview. As a Trustee of PAVS, there will be a certain level of responsibility and expectation associated with the role, details of which can be found here. You will be expected to support and promote the values of the organisation which are:
Excellence, Inclusiveness, Enthusiasm, Innovation, Collaboration and Kindness.

**_ So, what does PAVS do?_**

PAVS provides support, guidance and advice to anyone involved in charitable, voluntary or social enterprise organisations and activity across Pembrokeshire.

The work of PAVS is varied, from managing grant funded projects with specific aims such as the Keep Warm Keep Well programme, to delivery of collaborative activities such as Pembrokeshire Community Hub, which offers a single point of contact for anyone who needs a bit of help but does not know where to start - “solutions not services”.

Other activities in the PAVS portfolio include offering support to people wishing to start up or develop a social enterprise, and supporting families, communities, and businesses to become Dementia Friendly. You can find out about these projects and more on the PAVS website.

PAVS also works with public and private sector partners and has a key role in providing a voice for the sector in Pembrokeshire at a regional and national level, making sure that decision makers in local authorities and Welsh Government are informed about the challenges and opportunities in our local communities.

**_ What does the future look like?_**

The Board wishes to appoint a person who will embed and monitor delivery of PAVS vision and priorities as set out in our new five-year strategy. You will also be supporting and planning recruitment for key posts in the next 12 months, whilst having an active role in supporting the development of Enable3/Galluogi3 - a regional entity created in partnership with CAVS (Carmarthenshire Association of Voluntary Services) and CAVO (Ceredigion Association of Voluntary Organisations).

As Chair of the Board, you will be supporting PAVS to fulfil its strategic priorities by facilitating and enabling the third sector to do what they aspire to do, whilst understanding and championing volunteering to enhance community life and wellbeing. To do this, PAVS is not only developing the regional entity, but also looking to develop new and existing relationships across the public and private sector, and through increasing its membership profile.
