We are looking for new Trustees

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join The Society of St James as a Trustee where you will be able to have an impact on the work we do to end homelessness.


We are looking for Trustees who are as committed as we are about tackling social disadvantage and supporting people to realise their full potential. To enhance our current Board of Trustees and continue to develop our governance, we are looking for individuals with a breadth of key skills, knowledge and experience in the public or private sector, but particularly in the following areas:

    • housing
    • property
    • environmental issues
    • fundraising
    • finance

Current Trustees describe their role within SSJ as enriching and rewarding.  In exchange for their time and commitment, new Trustees can expect to:

  • Help set the strategic direction of a £15 million organisation, employing over 350 people across Hampshire
  • Make a valued contribution to the charity sector
  • Acquire new insights, broaden their experience and meet new people
  • Contribute to the development of others through the sharing of skills and experience

If you are interested in learning more about this opportunity, please contact Barbara Carstens on 023 8063 4596 or barbara.carstens@ssj.org.uk for a full Role Description and/or an informal discussion. You can also download the role description HERE.
