Join our team!
We are seeking an experienced and motivated Chair for our Board of Trustees to help ensure PBI UK continues on its trajectory of enhanced finances, governance and impact at a time of organisational growth and strategic evolution. This role provides a fantastic opportunity to develop experience in the management, strategy, governance, and legal obligations of an international non-governmental organisation, while contributing significantly to its impact.
The Chair will work alongside a mixture of long-standing and recently appointed Trustees with a breadth of expertise to support PBI UK’s dynamic Director and staff in their human rights work. The candidate will have proven leadership, organisational and communication skills and will be driven by a desire to support those on the front lines of the global human rights and environmental movements. They will have the vision to co-build an exciting and impactful present and future for PBI UK, and the ability to transmit this to external stakeholders to enhance their engagement.

As well as ensuring that the Board has structures, processes and members in place to function effectively, you will also prepare and chair our quarterly meetings. You will support the Director in implementing PBI UK’s strategy to support, protect and empower human rights defenders, occasionally representing the organisation in public to raise its profile and enhance its reputation. You will support and work together with PBI UK’s other Trustees to ensure effective governance and financial oversight.
