Herne Bay, Kent, United Kingdom Strode Park Foundation Full time
About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled and dedicated individual to join our Council of Management as a Trustee for Strode Park Foundation.

This is a voluntary role that involves governing our charity and providing strategic direction.

Our Trustees serve two terms of five years, and we are looking for individuals who can take an overview of our activities, ensure that all strategic decisions are aligned to our mission, and are implemented in accordance with our values.

We are keen to hear from people with expertise in finance, human resources, nursing and social care, and experts by experience.

Council Members can also put themselves forward for election to the role of Chair, Vice Chair, Treasurer, or for one of the two additional positions that make up the Executive Committee.

The Executive Committee meets with the Chief Executive and Director of Finance more frequently than the Council of Management and plays a more active advisory and monitoring role of day-to-day senior management and strategic decisions.

Council members will attend and contribute to quarterly Council of Management meetings, which are scheduled for the last Wednesday of March, June, September, and November.

There are also two online training modules in 'Safeguarding' and 'GDPR' to complete each year.

Essential Skills

We are looking for individuals who possess excellent communication and interpersonal skills, are able to work effectively in a team, and have a strong understanding of governance principles and practices.

Applicants should also have a passion for the mission and values of Strode Park Foundation and be able to demonstrate a commitment to equality, diversity, and inclusion.

About Company

Strode Park Foundation provides vital care and support services, supported living opportunities, and day and leisure services for young people and adults with a range of disabilities across Kent.

Our values of Care, Inspire, and Together underpin everything we do, and we are proud to employ truly inspirational people who make our care setting a remarkable place to work.

DE&I

Strode Park Foundation is fully committed to encouraging equality, diversity, and inclusion among our workforce and the elimination of unlawful and unfair discrimination.

We value the differences that a diverse workforce brings to our organisation and aim to create a culture that is respectful, inclusive, and free from discrimination.
