TRUSTEE VACANCIES!

April 2nd, 2019

We are currently looking to recruit 2 additional Trustees to assist with the management and governance of MATRIX Neurological, a registered charity and Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO).   It is not essential that you have any experience of child brain injury; but it would be an advantage.

If you are experienced and qualified in any of the following professions, we would be very interested to hear from you.

  • Qualified Accountant
  • Human Resource Management
  • Third Sector Senior Management

We would also like to hear from any parents of brain injured children who may be interested in increasing their skills and knowledge through becoming a Parent Trustee.  They will also represent the views of brain injured children and parents.

ROLE PURPOSE FOR ALL TRUSTEES:

  1. To ensure the charity is carrying out its purposes for public benefit
  2. Comply with the charity’s governing document and the law
  3. Act in the charity’s best interests
  4. Ensure the charity is accountable
  5. Manage the charity’s resources responsibly
  6. Act with reasonable care and skill

If you would like to volunteer a few hours a month for a really rewarding cause and are interested in becoming a Trustee for Matrix Neurological, please contact Jan Rock on:
