Trustee Part Time

Could you be our next Trustee?

For 50 years, Coeliac UK have been the experts on coeliac disease and the gluten free diet. We are an independent charity helping people living without gluten to live happier, healthier lives.

We do this by providing our 60,000 plus members with trustworthy advice and support, funding critical research into coeliac disease, working with healthcare professionals to improve diagnosis and fighting for better availability of gluten free food. We do it all so that one day, no one’s life will be limited by gluten.

We have an income of approximately £3.5m and a team of around 45 staff, all led by our highly experienced CEO.

The charity is governed and guided by a team of volunteer Trustees who provide their expertise and insight to help drive the charity forward.

We now have vacancies for two to three Trustees committed to what we do, and able to understand our complex agenda in a fast changing environment.

We are ideally looking for experience a range of specific areas, including the food industry (including manufacturing, retailing, hospitality and catering, food safety); licensing/trademarking; fundraising; marketing/PR; IT and/or Digital infrastructure. If you also have charity sector experience, so much the better.

Our current five year growth strategy is very exciting and if you become one of our Trustees, you will help develop our future.

The Board meet in person around five times a year and have the opportunity to serve on various Board committees. Appropriate training and inductions are provided and all reasonable out of pocket expenses are reimbursed.
