We are looking for a Secretary Trustee to support our charity as we take our next step to develop a digital tool to reduce the impacts of poverty nationally.
Help Close By is a charity which uses technology to fight poverty - connecting people with vital support in their area. Founded in Birmingham in 2020 to coordinate relief efforts during the pandemic, we've developed with focus on identifying people in need, supporting them and connecting them to services that will make a lasting change to their lives. Our next step is to roll out our app national-wide, and to encourage change with the reporting of real-time mapping and statistics.
Our Secretary of the Board of Trustees will support the organisation as it develops, ensuring oversight and scrutiny of vital decisions. Tasks will include keeping minutes, managing communication between the board and volunteer teams, and preparing all necessary documentation for the Charity Commission.
We are eager to hear from anyone with an interest in our charity who feels they have relevant experience for the role of Secretary.
Our trustees have a hand in connecting people with the help they need, and have the potential to inform funding and policy to tackle poverty on a national scale.
Shortlisted volunteers will be asked to complete an additional application form.
