Working closely with the Board and executive team, you’ll oversee our financial governance and risk management while contributing your broader strategic insights and experience across all aspects of our work.
This is an opportunity to apply your financial leadership experience to an organisation tackling some of today’s most pressing challenges.

While this is a voluntary role, it offers the opportunity to make a real difference in England’s countryside at a crucial time.
