Your new company

With a promise to create a better future, you will be working with other professionals who have a philanthropic mind-set that is powered by making the world a better place. In order for this charity to excel externally, it needs to function internally - this is where governance, and you, come into the picture.

Your new role

• Board and committee support, namely audit & risk, nominations & governance, and people & remuneration – minutes, actions, papers
• Providing a wide variety of support across the governance team during a period of change
• Simple corporate transactions

What you'll need to succeed

• Board support experience including strong minuting skills
• Companies Act knowledge
• Charity experience is helpful but not essential
• Diligent Entities and Diligent Boards experience
• Experience working in a changing environment, and can work both autonomously (needed in a busy environment to take governance matters forward) and collaboratively
• Preferably CGI qualified

What you'll get in return

• Competitive day rate of circa £380
• Competitive annual leave entitlement of 27.5 days (plus bank holidays)
• Hybrid working (Mondays and Fridays from home, the rest from the London office)
• Exposure to a dynamic, fast-paced, and collaborative environment
