Chester FC Community Trust is seeking additional trustees to further strengthen our Board and help deliver our mission.
 

 
The Trust is inviting applications from individuals with the enthusiasm and experience to complement the skills of the existing Board and contribute to the continued growth and success of the Trust.
 
We are particularly keen to hear from individuals with experience in the charitable, health or education sectors to expand the current range of Trustee skills.
 
New trustees will share our passion for creating opportunities and making a real difference in our communities.
 
As a trustee, you will be expected to attend bi-monthly meetings and contribute to setting the strategic direction of the Trust and overseeing the Trust’s effective management.
 
The Trust values diversity and welcomes applications from all parts of our community, particularly from under-represented groups including females, under 50s, disabled and people from BAME communities. There is no need to have trustee experience to apply.
 
Please note the role of trustee is voluntary, however reasonable expenses can be reimbursed in line with the Trust’s expenses policy.
