Vacancy for Independent Board Member

We have an exciting opportunity to join STAR Housing as an Independent Board Member.

After an exciting first 6 years we are now looking for an Independent Board Member who can further strengthen the Board.

We are seeking someone passionate about making a contribution and who can be an ambassador for STAR Housing. So, if you are passionate about housing, a strong team player and have time to commit this could be the role for you.

We particularly want to hear from candidates who have experience of:

• membership of an ALMO or HA Board
• finance or development experience
• experience of working at a senior level in the voluntary or housing sector

In exchange we can offer you training and development and the opportunity to further develop your skills and knowledge.

Board members are voluntary and do not get paid, but all out of pocket expenses will be reimbursed. The time commitment is, on average, 1.1/2 days per month, and Board and Subcommittee meetings are usually held in Shrewsbury during the working day.

For an informal discussion please contact Sue Adams, Managing Director on 01743 210201.
