Position Description
We are looking to appoint two new education focused trustees to join The Oxford Trust Board as we complete our latest investment at the Wood Centre for Innovation (also home to Science Oxford team) and work with a new CEO to develop the organisation’s next three to five-year strategic plan. Trustees will support the effective governance of the charity, helping to guide the strategic direction of the organisation while supporting and constructively challenging the CEO and senior leadership team.
We are looking for individuals who are passionate about science, education and entrepreneurship, and who are committed to diversity and inclusion.
Our ambition is for The Oxford Trust Board to represent and reflect the diversity of our communities and stakeholders, and we particularly welcome applications from people from under-represented groups, including people with lived experience of disability and younger applicants.
There are typically four two-hour in-person board meetings per year, alongside one strategic planning half-day. Participation in the Education Committee may involve up to four additional two-hour meetings per year, some of which may take place remotely via Teams.
