Board Members - Blackwood |
|
Live Life to the Full with Blackwood
Do you want to help people live their lives to the full regardless of the disability or difficulties they face? That's our mission just as it was the mission of our founder Margaret Blackwood.

At Blackwood we are looking for Board Members who can help sustain and expand our organisation.
We've been through dramatic change to make give us a sustainable future: in the last 2 years we have restructured the organisation, reduced costs particularly in Care, invested in leadership training for our staff and joined our care and housing operations together under powerful Regional Managers. We are currently investing in new technology to make us fit for the future and expansion.
Our governing Board is made up of volunteers who also sit on our Committees. The Board sets our strategic direction, reviews progress, and provides a steer to the senior management team.
In essence the four roles for a Board Member are:
- Strategy - setting the direction of the organisation
- Performance & scrutiny – providing an internal challenge
- Nurturing - supporting staff and managers
- Ambassador - promoting Blackwood externally
So do you want to help? We particularly want to recruit new Board Members with particular expertise in:
- Financial management/accounting
- Legal
- Marketing
- Urban/rural planning
- Building maintenance
- Property development/design
- Commercialisation
- Social Media
- Change Management
But if you have some other relevant expertise to bring to the Board let us know. The minimum time commitment is Board meetings seven times per year and the annual Board strategy day and ad-hoc meetings.
To apply, please submit your CV and a letter of interest detailing how your experience and background match the requirements for membership of Blackwood's Board.
