Who we are
Carers Trust works to transform the lives of unpaid carers. It partners with its network of local carer organisations to provide funding and support, deliver innovative and evidence-based programmes and raise awareness and influence policy. Carers Trust’s vision is that unpaid carers are heard and valued, with access to support, advice and resources to enable them to live fulfilled lives.
The role
We’re in a strong, stable position – financially and strategically – and we’re investing in bold
new ideas to support even more unpaid carers and local carer organisations across the UK.
With a fresh approach, renewed energy and a clear focus, we’re building something
different.
Our new fundraising strategy puts supporters at the heart of our operation. We’re building
our relationship with existing supporters, welcoming new ones and developing innovative
fundraising products to create sustainable income for the long term.
Right now, much of our voluntary income comes from trusts and statutory sources. Like
many, we know we need to diversify – but, unlike many, we’re ready to take risks and try new
things. We’re not just following the sector; we’re exploring where we can lead it.
That’s where you come in.
We’re looking for a strategic, forward-thinking leader to join our Trustee Board – someone
who can challenge and champion our fundraising direction, who brings fresh ideas, a
creative edge and isn’t afraid to ask the tough questions. Your insight could shape where we
go next and help ensure we’re investing in the right opportunities.
Carers Trust is a £13 million charity, leading a £150 million network of local carer
organisations. We have a fundraising team that consistently punches above its weight. If you
love collaborating with ambitious teams, challenging the status quo and finding smart,
inventive ways to make an impact – this could be the perfect role for you.
