Trustee at Justlife

Nationally, our research & policy team works to identify and advocate for much needed long-term solutions to hidden homelessness. Locally, our services based in Brighton & Hove and Greater Manchester support people who are homeless and living in temporary accommodation with welfare, health and housing needs. All our work is aimed at making stays in temporary accommodation as short, safe and healthy as possible.

What does the opportunity involve doing?

If you care about our mission to make people’s experience of homeless temporary accommodation short, safe and healthy and would like to bring your unique perspective and experience onto our board of trustees we would love to hear from you.

We know that a stronger Board is one with a wider range of personal experience, work experience, community knowledge and skills. We want to build a Board that includes people with different backgrounds, perspectives and life experiences. What we value: A genuine interest in Justlife's mission Willingness to learn and engage Your unique perspective and lived experience Curiosity, care and a collaborative approach.

What induction, training and support is offered?

You will be onboarded and trained thoroughly for the role in partnership with the staff team here at Justlife as well as the existing board members.

What skills or qualities are needed?

You do not need previous trustee experience, formal qualifications or a senior job title. What matters most is that you care about our mission, are willing to learn, and can bring your own perspective.
