Culture Coventry Trust is seeking individuals to join its Board of Trustees and help shape the future of a leading cultural organisation in Coventry. The Trust manages key heritage venues and delivers a wide programme of exhibitions, events and community engagement across the city.
As a Trustee, you will provide strategic leadership and oversight, ensuring the organisation is well governed, financially sustainable, and delivering its charitable objectives. You will contribute to Board discussions, support decision-making, and help set the long-term vision and direction of the Trust, while ensuring compliance with charity law and acting in the organisation's best interests.
We are particularly interested in applicants with experience or a strong interest in Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI), who can help ensure the Trust reflects and serves Coventry's diverse communities. You will champion inclusive practices, bring diverse perspectives to Board discussions, and support the organisation in embedding EDI across its strategy and activities.
Key responsibilities include overseeing governance and compliance with charity law, contributing to strategic planning, and ensuring that resources are used effectively to maximise public benefit. Trustees are also expected to act as ambassadors for the organisation, building and maintaining relationships with stakeholders, partners and funders at local, regional and national levels.
Experience in areas such as business, fundraising, digital, or commercial activity are also desirable.

Prior Board experience is not required. We particularly welcome applications from individuals who bring diverse perspectives and lived experience.

This is an unpaid, voluntary role requiring attendance at quarterly Board meetings and preparation time. It offers a rewarding opportunity to influence the cultural landscape of Coventry and support meaningful impact across communities.
