Are you an experienced governance professional who is not only passionate about getting the details and processes right but gets excited about ensuring governance work really underpins and helps drive who we are as an organisation – our impact, our values and behaviours? Then we would love to hear from you.

About the role

Good governance and compliance is fundamental to our success as a registered charity and membership organisation and we’re looking for a Governance Manager who can help us implement our governance strategy whilst still making sure we get the basics right. 

As a governance manager you will:

  • Act as board secretary
  • Act as a guardian of the core governance documents and policies
  • Support governance development to achieve best governance practice

About you

You are an experience governance professional, preferably with strong charity governance knowledge, who can bring the skills and knowledge to support trustees and our small governance team in ensuring we get governance right – our day-to-day processes and planning, our compliance and our development. 

You are a highly knowledgeable and organised individual who has experience of providing excellent board secretarial services and governance advice.

You will also:

  • have a good understanding of governance best practices, ideally within the charity sector
  • have a pragmatic and strategic approach to your work
  • be skilled at forming positive relationships with key stakeholders at all levels of seniority. 
  • be highly organised, able to manage ‘up’
  • be able to act as a champion of good governance across the organisation, supporting staff to understand the organisation’s legal and governance obligations whilst finding pragmatic solutions that achieve excellence in governance yet are mindful of organisational pressures and priorities.

We are a small but fast paced team and therefore excellent project and task management is a must along with working in a mutually supportive way to ensure we achieve our common goals.  

This is a great opportunity for a highly motivated individual who has the knowledge, experience and confidence to play a key role in shaping the governance of our organisation at a critical time.
