VACANCIES
Do you have a passion for improving the lives of older people in LS17?
Do you have experience, past or present, in leadership?
MAECare is looking for Trustees, ideally people who live or work in North Leeds, but not exclusively.
MAECare is an independent charity (No 1100645) and company limited by guarantee (No 4352867), working in Leeds 17 and supporting older people to live at home for as long as possible and to have the best quality of life. We send our newsletter to nearly 1000 people and organise a wide range of social activities and exercise classes as well as offering one to one support.
Trustees meet for two hours every 6 weeks during the day time; this is the minimum commitment we require. We are looking for people with an interest in supporting older people, willing to make this contribution to their local community. IT, marketing and analytical skills are welcome but not essential.
The skills and attributes we are looking for are:
- A commitment to the organisation
- A willingness to devote the necessary time and effort
- Strategic vision
- Good, independent judgement
- An ability to think creatively
- A willingness to speak your mind
- An understanding and acceptance of the legal duties, responsibilities and liabilities of trusteeship
- An ability to work effectively as a member of a team
- A commitment to Nolan’s seven principles of public life: selflessness, integrity, objectivity, accountability, openness, honesty and leadership.
There is a short application process and we need to take up references.
