Trustees

Trustee Board Member

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who shares our vision for a fairer, greener and more prosperous societyand can bring additional strengths and experience to help us deliver an even bigger impact over the coming years.

With an unparalleled track record of driving progressive change over 30 years, IPPR’s research and policy work has always put forward practical solutions to the crises facing society. In recent years we have broadened our perspective well beyond Westminster and Whitehall, working across IPPR, IPPR North and IPPR Scotland to influence policy change at every level of government, and developing solutions with strong community participation. 

In our most recent strategy, we have committed to continuing our programmes of research, communication and advocacy that turn progressive ideas into common sense realities. We have also committed to playing our part in wider social movements, putting our policy proposals at the service of everyone advocating for social, democratic, environmental and economic progress. 

As one of our trustees, you’ll be responsible for setting the overall strategic direction for our work and overseeing the effective running of the organisation, keeping our senior management team on track, making sure we stay true to our mission and do what we've said we will do. But being an IPPR trustee is not just another governance role: it’s an opportunity to support some of the UK’s best thinkers and most effective changemakers as they make a positive and lasting difference to the country.

We have more than one vacancy and are looking for people who can contribute one or more of the following skills and experiences. 

• Finance

• Fundraising 

• Legal

If you’re passionate about our work and have the skills and time to make a difference, we’d love to hear from you.
