Who we are
For over 50 years, Coeliac UK have been the experts on coeliac disease and the gluten free diet. We help people living without gluten to live happier, healthier lives.
The role
We do this by providing our 60,000 plus members and around 1 million stakeholders with trustworthy advice and support, funding critical research into coeliac disease, working with healthcare professionals to improve diagnosis and championing better availability of gluten free food. We do it all so that one day, no one’s life will be limited by gluten.
We have an income of approximately £4.5m and a team of around 60 staff, all led by our highly experienced CEO. The charity is governed and guided by a team of volunteer Trustees who provide their expertise and insight to help drive the charity forward.
We currently have vacancies for two Trustees who are committed to what we do and are able to contribute to our complex agenda in a fast moving environment.
It’s an exciting time to join us as we think about our next strategic phase and what we need to do to increase our effectiveness and impact for our beneficiaries.
We are a friendly, supportive and committed organisation, ultimately, all working to one common goal – to end coeliac disease. Meanwhile, there is lots to do to help our community.
Do you have experience in:
• Finance and investment management
• The charity sector, including charity fundraising, and charity law and regulation
• Technology, and the application of AI
• Medical / scientific knowledge of research and / or coeliac disease
If your skills aren’t listed here but you feel like you have useful experience then please do apply, as even if the Trustee role isn’t for you, you may be able to help us in other ways.
Appropriate training and inductions will be provided and all reasonable out of pocket expenses will be reimbursed.
