Trustee, Chair of Finance Sub-Committee

Cord is an international charity that works with people in highly sensitive and oppressive contexts to transform dysfunctional relationships into those that create peaceful & inclusive societies. Our vision, mission and values are inspired by the Christian faith we work towards these through employing and working with people of all faiths and none.

Cord is governed by a Board whose members are Directors of the Company and Trustees of the Charity. They support the health and well-being of the organisation through deliberation, prayer and decision making. While the organisation works with people of all faiths and none, it is inspired by the Christian faith and it is therefore an occupational requirement that trustees, as guardians of Cord’s values, must be practising Christians.

Cord is looking for a dynamic trustee who can fulfil the role of Chair of the Finance Sub-Committee. They will work with the Board and staff team to develop our approach to finance and be able to support the move towards cloud-based accounting systems.

The Chair of the Finance Sub-Committee is a member of the board and leader of the Finance Sub-Committee. In addition to the general responsibilities of a trustee, the Chair meets with the CEO and Head of Operations to support the approach to finance.

We are now looking for a Chair for the Finance Sub-committee who can take Cord further, as we continue to deliver our updated strategy to build peace through healthy relationships in society.
