Thames Reach Charity are looking for a new member to join our Board of Trustees. As well as a commitment to ending rough in London, and the ability to provide strategic oversight for the organisation, we are hoping to recruit members with specific skills in the following areas:

Financial and Audit knowledge

We are looking for candidates with up-to-date financial knowledge, they are likely to be a qualified accountant with a track record of employment in the commercial, public or non-profit sector.

Detailed knowledge of the environment in which we operate is not essential, and all board members can access appropriate training and support.

The successful candidate would join the full board as well as the group’s Finance Audit and Fundraising sub-committee which works on behalf of both Boards to scrutinise our financial performance and to support the Board in developing and scrutinising our financial strategy.

This is an opportunity to be part of an organisation with an excellent reputation for delivering high quality services, and which is serious about working to end rough sleeping in London.

Stephen Howard, Chair – Thames Reach Charity:

“Thames Reach is an organisation making a real and practical difference to people affected by homelessness. By joining as a Trustee, you can use your skills and experience to bring us closer to a society where rough sleeping is ended and nobody need sleep rough on the streets.”

Closing date: Sunday 15 September 2024.
