We’re seeking skilled and enthusiastic people, from a range of backgrounds and communities, to join our Board of Trustees and help empower, support, and develop local community groups, charities, and social enterprises.

Voscur is the support and development agency for Bristol’s Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprise (VCSE) sector. We support organisations in and around Bristol to increase their impact and help more local people.

Members of the Board of Trustees bring their skills and experience so we can develop as a strong organisation that takes care of its resources and people, and has a high impact. Our Trustees:

• Ensure that we deliver our charitable objectives (to support the VCSE sector and to facilitate partnerships)
• Participate in Board/Committee meetings, general meetings, conferences/events, and development sessions
• Receive and approve regular financial reports, and ensure good financial practices
• Contribute to strategic planning and development
• Ensure complains with relevant legislation & Charity/Company requirements
• Regularly review our policies and practices
• Get involved with and/or provide leadership on specific development & initiatives
• Provide guidance on new initiatives and issues affecting the sector.

Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion are very important to Voscur as we serve a very diverse VCSE sector. We are keen to increase the diversity of our Board, and welcome applications from people whose communities are currently under-represented on the Board - please see the information pack for more details.

Voscur is led by its members, and we are particularly keen for organisations from across the local VCSE sector to be represented on our Board of Trustees.

We want to hear from you! Please read the information pack and get excited about joining our team
