Board Member

Join us and be part of a team that is renowned for delivering high quality, free and independent advice across Shetland. Board members have a key role by supporting those on the front line.

Volunteers like you are central to what our service is all about - ensuring our Bureau is rooted within Shetland community and bringing your own gifts and experience to help ensure that people in the Shetland Community have access to the advice they need.

Our burau is a charity, set up for public benefit, and one of the main duties of a trustee is to be responsible for the strategic management of the bureau and set a vision for the organisation. The Board must ensure that it adheres to all legal requirements (e.g. company, charity and employment). Good governance and setting standards as an exemplary employer are key.


Experience required

No qualifiactions required. Good communication skills, and experience in Finance/strategic planning welcome, but not essential.
