Struggling to recruit trustees or finding that the same networks bring forward the same people?
Join NFP People for a free, practical webinar exploring how charities can improve trustee recruitment and reach people with the skills, perspectives and lived experience their boards need.
We will look at how to create an appealing opportunity, remove barriers to applying and support candidates through a clear recruitment process. Drawing on our experience recruiting trustees and board members for charities, we will share examples and approaches you can adapt to your organisation and budget.
The session will cover:
- Identifying gaps on your board and planning for future vacancies.
- Writing clear trustee adverts and useful candidate packs.
- Reaching beyond your existing networks through advertising and proactive approaches.
- Making recruitment more accessible and welcoming to first-time trustees.
- Assessing candidates fairly and planning a supportive induction.
You will leave with practical ideas to strengthen your next trustee recruitment campaign, with time to ask questions and share challenges.
Who should attend?
Charity leaders, chairs, existing trustees and anyone responsible for recruiting board members.
Duration: One hour, including questions.
