Remote, United Kingdom Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust Full time
About The Role

At WWT, we are on a mission to restore wetlands and unlock their power. Taking direct action to bring wetlands back to life and inspiring and empowering everyone to do just the same.

We are looking for someone with investment portfolio experience to join our Finance, Audit and Risk Committee (FARCom) as a co-opted member.

Effective governance is vital in making sure we harness our resources to achieve our strategy. Our Council of Trustees are responsible for overseeing our strategic direction and managing our finances, resources and risk.

The FARCom plays a crucial role in supporting trustees to do this. As a co-opted committee member, you will bring your specialist skills and knowledge to bear, helping to ensure short and long term viability for the charity. Co-opted members are not trustees, but play a crucial role in enabling good governance.

Online interviews will take place during the week of the 19th January (likely the 22nd - if you have restricted availability that week, please make a note of this in your application – we will accommodate requirements where possible).

To apply, you will need to answer a few questions and upload a CV – 'apply' below.

If you have any questions please contact
