Want to make an impact? Join our Board
Standing Tall is an innovative not-for-profit making a real impact in reducing homelessness.
For the past 18 months, we’ve been helping people in Birmingham to move away from the streets for good. 80% of the people we help are still off the streets and in the same job one year later!
In July we begin delivery in London and Manchester. We plan to be operating in at least 10 UK cities in the next 3 years helping 200 people to move away from the streets for good.
So we’re building a trustee board that has the capability and capacity to oversee this growth, and support and challenge the executive team.
We’re looking to recruit 5 exceptional people to join our trustee board, each with expertise in one of the following areas:
· Corporate expertise and experience
· Diversity and Inclusion expertise
Are you interested in making good change happen?
You’re in the right place!
Our commitment to Diversity and Inclusion
Standing Tall provides a solution for people who experience homelessness. Going through homelessness is awful and it’s so hard to get yourself out of it. At Standing Tall, we make the world a fairer place by influencing our partner businesses to make their workforces more diverse.
Having this expertise, we challenge discrimination and prejudice. We are proud to be committed to building a team of people who belong to a diverse and inclusive set of identities and backgrounds.
