Apply for this job:

Although we are looking to strengthen our Board of Trustees experience in the above area, DWCT benefits from having Trustees with a wide range of skills and experience and we therefore welcome nominations from any candidates who feel they have expertise which can support our vision of a wilder, healthier, more colourful world.

Trustees do not have operational responsibilities but are there to provide collective oversight. Most importantly we are looking for individuals who can provide support and challenge in a positive and constructive way to enable the Executive team to deliver DWCT’s strategic goals.

Richard Daggett, Chair of Governance Committee will be overseeing the recruitment process for these positions.
