Trustee - Income Generation experience

We’re in a strong, stable position – financially and strategically – and we’re investing in bold new ideas to support even more unpaid carers and local carer organisations across the UK. With a fresh approach, renewed energy and a clear focus, we’re building something different.

Our new fundraising strategy puts supporters at the heart of our operation. We're building our relationship with existing supporters, welcoming new ones and developing innovative fundraising products to create sustainable income for the long term.

Join the team

Right now, much of our voluntary income comes from trusts and statutory sources. Like many, we know we need to diversify – but, unlike many, we’re ready to take risks and try new things. We’re not just following the sector; we’re exploring where we can lead it.

That’s where you come in.

We’re looking for a strategic, forward-thinking leader to join our Trustee Board - someone who can challenge and champion our fundraising direction, who brings fresh ideas, a creative edge, and isn’t afraid to ask the tough questions. Your insight could shape where we go next and help ensure we’re investing in the right opportunities.

Carers Trust is a £13 million charity, leading a £150 million network of local carer organisations. We have a fundraising team that consistently punches above its weight.

If you love collaborating with ambitious teams, challenging the status quo and finding smart, inventive ways to make an impact – this could be the perfect role for you.

Ready to shake things up for a great cause?
