CURRENT VACANCIES
Board Member
The Centre for Workplace Equity is establishing its first full Board of Trustees to co-create the organisation’s vision, mission and objectives.
This is an exciting and unique opportunity to work with a global team of changemakers to build the foundations of a new NGO working to advance equity in workplaces worldwide from its very inception.
Centre for Workplace Equity
The Centre for Workplace Equity (CWE) is a new Scottish-registered international charity dedicated to advancing equity in workplaces globally. It will provide evidence-based consulting, diagnostics, and interventions specifically to that sector, maintain a resource database on workplace equity, and run campaigns to promote systemic change. The Centre will co-create its vision, mission, and objectives with a globally representative Board, ensuring diverse regional and intersectional perspectives, especially from the Global South, shape its work.
The Board of Trustees
CWE’s Board of Trustees exists to provide strategic oversight, guidance, and stewardship in advancing the Centre’s mission. The Board supports the Centre by shaping its long-term vision, ensuring alignment with its values and objectives, and upholding high standards of governance and accountability. In addition, the Board serves as a source of expertise, advocacy, and connection, helping to strengthen the Centre’s impact, build collaborative partnerships, and champion workplace equity across sectors and global regions. The full Terms of Reference for the Board of Trustees can be viewed here.
About You
We are looking for 10–15 Board members who can bring their perspectives, lived experiences, and professional expertise. Collectively, members will contribute knowledge across areas such as human resources, people and culture, social justice, equity, diversity and inclusion, feminism, finance, fundraising, organisational governance, policy, research, and communications.
We are also keen to hear from individuals who may have an interest in acting as the Secretary or Treasurer of the Board (role descriptions to be shared at a later date).
​​
CWE particularly welcomes interest from individuals and communities whose voices are underrepresented in governance and leadership. This includes (but is not limited to) women, people from historically marginalised racial and ethnic backgrounds (Global Majority), disabled people, neurodivergent people, LGBTQ+ and gender-diverse individuals, people with long-term health conditions or chronic illnesses, people from working-class communities, migrants, refugees and asylum seekers, people from the Global South, those in informal or insecure employment, carers, younger and older workers, people of faith and from belief communities, and those from rural or geographically marginalised areas. We believe that centring such perspectives is essential to advancing genuine workplace equity.
