Become a Trustee and help to empower positive change in Edinburgh

Trustee, Governor, Director, Committee Member, Management Member, Executive Council Member, Officer…What ever you are called!

In nearly 1800 voluntary sector organisations across Edinburgh, it is estimated that 90% have vacancies for volunteers on their Management Committees and they are looking for individuals to support their work. The rewarding role of the MC Member is as varied as the organisation it governs, luckily for this city the number and diversity of organisations means that your interests and skills can be easily matched.

Potential Trustees are often deterred from taking the next step to becoming a Trustee because the belief is that some legal or financial knowledge is needed, but take a look at what you know, what are your skills and knowledge? Every organisation needs variety, it’s needed in every work force and a Management Committee is no different. For more information about becoming a Trustee look here Potential Trustees.

The GOBiE Project has now finished and is no longer providing the matching service, however you can search for Trustee opportunities via our website here and select ‘Committee Work’ in the Type of Activity.
