Trustee Recruitment

 

Irish Community Care Manchester is looking to find new trustees that can help to lead the organisation to achieve its charitable goals and build sustainability for the future. The new trustees will bring a range of skills and experience providing inspiration and leadership to a long-standing charity as we continue to develop and grow in support of the Irish Community across Manchester. 

We expect all our trustees to have a strong affinity or interest in the work we do and what makes the Irish and Irish Traveller community in Manchester unique and special. 

We are committed to widening the diversity of our board so that it is fully representative of the wide range of lived experiences within the Irish and Irish Traveller communities that we serve. We would particularly welcome applications from segments of the Irish Community in Manchester who are not currently represented at board level. 

In addition, at this time the board are particularly interested in adding additional skills and experience in charity finance and management accounting. 

​

We are asking for letters of interest and relevant CV to be sent to us.
