Who we are

The European Network on Statelessness (ENS) is a civil society alliance of organisations and individuals working to promote the right to a nationality in Europe. Our network brings together over 180 members in more than 40 countries and includes grassroots community organisations, national and international NGOs, legal advice agencies, think tanks, individuals with lived experience of statelessness, and other experts.


The role

About the Role

As a Digital Trustee with expertise in AI and digital technologies, including regulation of AI use within organisations, you will play a pivotal role in providing strategic direction to our ethical AI adoption and digital transformation. This position is a voluntary trustee role, requiring a passionate and dedicated individual with experience in emerging tech trends, particularly in the non-profit sector and a genuine commitment to the values and objectives of our organisation.

We are a fully digital and paperless team, using MS365 and a CRM. We have developed and maintain innovative digital tools like the Statelessness Index (which analyses and compares how European countries are protecting stateless people and taking steps to end statelessness) and the Statelessness Caselaw Database (the first database containing case law related to statelessness in Europe, a vital tool for legal practitioners). Now we’re looking forward to harnessing technology like AI and more, to continue to innovate in our work to end statelessness and protect people without a nationality.

  • Experience with digital transformation, AI applications, and emerging tech trends
  • A deep understanding of the ways in which digital transformation and ethical AI adoption is planned and delivered in small-medium organisations, preferably in the non-profit sector
  • Familiarity with ethical AI, data privacy, and responsible innovation

  • Good communication and interpersonal skills
  • Tact and diplomacy, willingness to challenge and constructively criticise.

  • Commitment to ENS’s aims and values and willingness to devote time to carry out responsibilities
  • Willingness to be available to staff and trustees for advice on an ad hoc basis
