Trustee Board vacancies at Charlton Athletic Community Trust (CACT)

Exciting opportunities exist to join the CACT Board in the new year 2025. We are currently recruiting to expand the expertise, skill set and diversity of our Board at a significant time in our development as we strive collectively, in collaboration with the senior leadership team, to professionalise and modernise the Trust, in response to a recent organisational review.  As one of the largest Club Community Organisations (CCOs) in the UK, we have strong foundations and successes on which to build, including recently achieving the Community Club of the Season in 23/24.

CACT is a charity that predominantly serves diverse and disadvantaged communities in South East London and Kent.  CACT works in partnership with local authorities, health organisations, support agencies and other charities to deliver a variety of programmes that aim to empower local communities, change lives and address issues around health, crime, education and employment.

CACT’s trustees have responsibilities under both company law as directors and under charity law, as trustees.  Trustees play a vital role in the strategic leadership and direction of the charity, working closely with the CEO and senior leadership team, setting the vision for the Trust, ensuring financial probity and holding the executive to account through support and challenge, informed by evidence-based practice. 

Through your contribution, you will have the opportunity to make a positive difference by ‘helping us to be the best at getting better’ on our journey to become a market leader.  You will actively support, through your unique expertise and skill set, an award-winning charity that has an excellent reputation within the local community, as well as farther afield, for delivering quality, life-changing services with a lasting impact.

CACT’s highly committed and experienced board of trustees represents a range of backgrounds, experiences, specialist knowledge and skills.  At this stage in our development, we are particularly looking for outstanding individuals who ideally have experience in one or more of the following:  IT/digital transformation, business development, youth and community voice, ESG and social value.  However, we welcome applications from others who feel they can add value to our ambitions and purpose.

CACT is committed to embracing and fostering equity, equality, diversity and inclusion in the workplace as well as in the delivery of its services and programmes, by promoting a positive organisational culture that values all staff, volunteers and service users. 

CACT actively seeks to broaden diversity of thought and perspectives at Board level. While we welcome applications from individuals of all backgrounds, we are particularly interested in candidates from groups currently under-represented on our Board, including Women, individuals from diverse communities, and people with disabilities.

CACT is committed to the safeguarding of its staff, volunteers and beneficiaries.  Any appointment made is subject to CACTs Safer Recruitment process which includes satisfactory references and a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. Applicants will also be asked to complete a Declaration of Eligibility to become a Charitable Trustee form before the appointment is confirmed.
