Chair of London Funders

Deadline:              10am Friday 30 August 2024

Salary:                   Voluntary position                       

 

About the role

London Funders is recruiting for a new Chair, to take over from David Farnsworth of City Bridge Foundation as he comes to the end of his maximum nine-year term on our Board.  The Chair role is critical to our success as a membership body – leading the Board, ensuring all Trustees are able to be actively involved in the effective governance of the charity; and keeping the team on track in delivering against our vision and strategy, through inspiring and enabling the Chief Executive.

There aren’t many roles where you get to make a real difference across every part of London, and across all areas of funding activity – but as the new Chair of London Funders you’ll be leading the governance of an organisation that works with members who fund from Barnet to Bromley, from the Arts to zoos, and everything and everyone in between. The 170+ member organisations of London Funders (who come from across the public, private and philanthropic sectors) distribute over £750m every year, and it’s our role to bring them together to build a better London by taking action on what matters to our city and our communities. 

You will provide strategic leadership to the charity, ensuring that our governance is sound, our executive team are motivated and enabled to succeed, and that the impact we achieve for our members and our communities is maximised.
