**A chance to contribute to lasting change**
JRCT is a Quaker trust which supports people who address the root causes of conflict and injustice. The Trust has been operating for almost 110 years, and has granted hundreds of millions of pounds since 1904. We work as a responsive funder, backing vital organisations bringing about genuine systemic change in the fields of Peace, Rights & Justice, Power & Accountability, Sustainable Future and Peace and human rights in Northern Ireland.
We are now seeking up to four trustees to join our Board, and to be part of a passionate team that is dedicated to promoting social justice, tackling inequality, and responding to a changing society. These are unique and highly rewarding roles with a chance to make a real difference to JRCT’s future as we deliver our strategic goals.
We are committed to building a strong Board, equipped for the future, with the right skills and experience to govern across all areas. We are aiming to achieve a step change in board diversity, because we strongly believe a representative and inclusive board will be the most effective and recognise that we are currently lack diversity.
Trustees should be in sympathy with the Quaker values of the Trust, which include a commitment to equality and the worth of every individual, to nonviolence, and to honesty and integrity. **We are looking for four new trustees who will bring experience in one or more of the following priority areas**:
- **Organisational change and governance**:
- **Anti-racism, power sharing and anti-oppressive practice**:
- **Communications**:
- **Law**:
- **Finance and Investment.**
JRCT operates a conflict-of-interest policy in respect of all its programme areas. Applicants for this role are requested to fully disclose professional associations with any former or current JRCT grantees. Ideally, the Trust seeks to appoint individuals who are not directly involved with organisations that are likely to seek funding from the Trust.
This is a voluntary role, but we cover travel and meeting expenses. We are keen to ensure that no one should be prevented from serving as a trustee for financial reasons, and we are in the process of reviewing our current policy so that people feel that they are able to offer their time regardless of their financial circumstances.
