Citizens Advice is a high profile service, with a strong reputation for delivering free, high quality, impartial advice to those in need.

Citizens Advice Scotland, our 61 member bureaux, our Citizens Advice consumer service and the Extra Help Unit together form Scotland’s largest independent advice network.  We help more than 300,000 people solve their problems each year in communities everywhere from city centres to the Highlands and Islands.

We look at the problems people bring to our advice services and campaign for change where it’s needed most. So when we speak out about something, it’s because it matters to people – whether it’s limiting the damaging effects of welfare reform or making sure payday loan companies can’t ruin lives.

In order that we can maintain the governance structure of the organisation, we are seeking experienced and motivated people from outside the Citizens Advice service to join our Board of Trustees.

In particular, we are keen to appoint individuals with the following knowledge and experience:

  • Significant senior management experience in a substantial organisation
  • Significant senior management experience in the communications, media and social policy sectors
  • Senior management experience of HR matters
  • A background in finance to fulfil the role of Treasurer

Closing date:    Monday 24th August 2015
