Trustee

• The Edinburgh Cat Protection League

• VO102967

We are currently seeking to recruit at least 3 new trustees to help strengthen and inspire the existing board with new ideas and goals at this exciting time of change and restructuring for the ECPL. The new trustees will bring their individual expertise to help shape the charity going forward, setting overall policy, providing strategic guidance and financial oversight and ensuring compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements.

Who are we looking for?
First and foremost we are looking for applicants with a love of cats, a genuine interest in their welfare and a commitment and enthusiasm to be part of the charity going forward.
In addition we would particularly value individuals with skills and experience in one or more of the following areas:
Veterinary medicine
Financial/accounting/budgeting
HR
Investment management
Property management

Commitment
You will be asked to commit to attending a minimum of 4 board meetings each year with at least 2 in person meetings in addition to the AGM. Initially it is intended the meetings will be in person with the option to join some meetings virtually once the new board is established and the new structure of the charity is complete. Meetings are arranged in advance to suit diaries. The roles are voluntary although reasonable public transport travel expenses will be reimbursed as necessary.
