Join us as a trustee and help to change the lives of disabled and seriously ill children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The role<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is a fantastic opportunity to develop skills and experience, while at the same time giving back to a nationwide charity that makes a real practical difference to the lives of families every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are seeking two trustees to join our team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For one role, we are seeking a trustee with the knowledge and experience to help us navigate the changing digital landscape and understand the digital possibilities open to us. We want to use technology for automation and business efficiency and explore the opportunities artificial intelligence present; how we can use it to deliver our strategy and deliver for families – but without losing our personal touch which families value so highly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the other role we hope to find a trustee with experience in the digital marketing field, with a knowledge of digital strategies to grow brand awareness and income. We want to maximise our brand profile and use marketing strategies to grow reach and enable fundraising and growth diversification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For both, we are seeking trustees who can bring thought leadership, challenge and ideas on the ways we embrace technology and digital solutions to grow our income in order to support more families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The person<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We welcome candidates of any background who have the required skills and experience to be a trustee. We would like to particularly encourage those with disabilities or long-term conditions or who are parents or carers of children and young adults with disabilities or serious illnesses to apply, to bring fresh perspectives through lived experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
