Trustee: Transform Europe Network (TEN)
 

Transform Europe Network (TEN) invites applications to join its board of trustees, from individuals who share our passion for the growth of God’s Kingdom.

TEN’s vision is to transform lives with the good news of Jesus Christ through compassion, evangelism and church planting, and we do this by serving alongside indigenous Christians in Eastern Europe and the Balkans.

Being a Christian charity, we would seek individuals who share our faith and values, and who also bring an understanding of the responsibilities of trusteeship.

Some of the key qualities that we seek would therefore include:

• A heart for Jesus and seeing God’s Kingdom grow around the world;
• A clear interest and understanding of TEN’s cause;
• An understanding of the legal responsibilities of a charity trustee;
• Specific experience or skills in one or more of the following areas: legal, safeguarding, HR, finance;
• The personality to work as part of the trustee team and with key management members.

The trustee board meets at least four times a year, alternating between physical meetings at the TEN office in Bristol and online meetings, as well as for strategy days once a year. We usually meet online for occasional ad hoc discussions of matters that need board discussion. Outside of the actual meetings, there will be papers to read. For board meetings, such papers would typically require a few hours to read in preparation for a meeting.

A trustee is appointed for a term of four years and can serve a maximum of three terms (twelve years). Ideally a board member would stay for at least one term.
