Have you been told “be patient, your opportunities will come”? We don't want you to wait. Take an opportunity to lead & do something meaningful. Build your CV & get leadership experience. We want the next generation of leaders. We want YOU.

What You'll Do: 

The RSPCA is the UK’s leading animal welfare charity.  No, we don't need you to shake a collection tin - this is not 1982.  We need your new ideas, your digital skills, your understanding of social networks and eCommerce. We want to give opportunities to the next generation of leaders to become Trustees.  Trustees run Charities like Boards run Companies.  As a Trustee you will be a full and equal member of our leadership team.  Deciding what to do, how we raise and spend money, organising events, working as a team to help animals within our region.

 

If you want to work directly with animals, you can.  If you prefer to be behind the scenes making things run smoothly, you can.  We need many different skills on our Board of Trustees so we can get things done.  Do you think you can contribute?  Then let's work together.

 

Trustees manage the RSPCA Middlesbrough, South Tees & District Branch charity.  Like any company we get involved in finance, people and legal topics, making strategies and monitoring our progress.  More importantly, we focus on raising funds, managing volunteers and spending money where it is needed to support animals in our region - YOUR region.  So, whatever your background or skills there is a role you can play.  We support all types of animals and we seek all types of people - diversity is our strength.

The Board meets every month to update each other and make decisions.  Beyond that you may be helping to organise fundraising events, assessing which projects to support, tracking progress on vaccination programs, working with local vets to offer more support out of hours, or making sure our volunteers are well managed and motivated.

 

Why You'll Love It: 
YOU can make a real difference - be part of the management team leading this charity - directly see the impact of your work - gain skills and experience while doing something meaningful - flexible hours (give as much or as little time as you can) - flexible work (focus on areas you are good at.. or learn something new) - work with people who want to pass on their skills and experience
What You'll Learn: 
There are lots of benefits to becoming an RSPCA Middlesbrough, South Tees & District Branch Trustee, these include: Use your skills to do something useful Pass on your skills and learn new ones Trustee training and experience Real leadership experience Real opportunities to improve animal welfare in your community Access to RSPCA Learning Hub with a wide range of training materials Lead not follow.  Shape our future direction and make your mark
What We're Looking For: 
We seek people from diverse backgrounds who want to work together to improve animal welfare.  We are a team, we support each other and learn from each other.  You do not need to be an experienced Trustee - we can help with that.  We want you to bring your skills and motivation, your problem solving skills and ability to get along with people and get things done.  If you live on Teesside we would love to hear from you.   Together we can make a real difference.   Please note that Trustees must be at least 18 years of age.  This is a volunteer role (reasonable expenses will be reimbursed).
