We currently have three voluntary trustee vacancies:

1. HR Trustee
We are looking for someone with experience or an interest in Human Resources to join our Board of Trustees and support the management and development of our volunteer team.
Main responsibilities:
• Oversee and support IAD's HR team and activities.
• Help develop, review and maintain HR policies and procedures.
• Advise on volunteer management, team relationships and internal HR matters.
• Advise the Board on HR-related matters and organisational needs.

2. Treasurer Trustee
We are looking for someone with an interest or experience in finance, accounting, bookkeeping or financial management.
Main responsibilities:
• Oversee IAD's financial affairs.
• Monitor income and expenditure.
• Maintain basic financial records.
• Support the preparation of annual accounts and financial reporting.
IAD currently has relatively modest financial activity, so this is expected to be a manageable commitment for the foreseeable future.

3. Legal Trustee
We are looking for someone with a background in UK law, legal practice, compliance or regulatory affairs.
Main responsibilities:
• Provide legal guidance and advice to the Board.
• Review legal documents, policies and agreements.
• Advise on legal risks and relevant compliance requirements.
• Support the Board with legal and constitutional matters.

What does being a trustee involve?
These are voluntary, unpaid positions. Trustees are collectively responsible for overseeing IAD, acting in the charity's best interests and ensuring it fulfils its charitable purposes and legal obligations.

We welcome applications from people with different backgrounds and professional experience who want to contribute their skills to a small, growing charitable organisation.
