Role Purpose:

We are a charity and we are seeking four Student Trustees to sit on our Trustee Board. The Board sets the strategic direction of the Students’ Association, monitors our performance and has legal and financial oversight of the organisation.

Role Activity:

We are seeking volunteers who have strategic thinking, independent judgement, an ability to think creatively and a willingness to speak their mind. Ideally, the new Student Trustees will have had a leadership role within the Students' Association, university or the local community and have a good understanding of the issues affecting students and the different types of students (undergraduate, postgraduate, full time, part time, international, mature, articulation etc).

Role Benefits:

Being a trustee is not only a valuable way of contributing to the charity sector. It can also be a fascinating and rewarding experience for individuals, helping them to broaden their interests and develop their skills.

How to Get Involved:

You can watch short videos of other students’ experiences and read an information pack: www.GCUstudents.co.uk/studenttrustee. There is an application process for this role.
