Location: Remote / Flexible Commitment: Approx. 1–2 days per month Remuneration: Voluntary position (reasonable expenses may be reimbursed)

About The Forever Trust

is a modern philanthropic organisation and donor-advised fund (DAF) focused on building sustainable, long-term impact through innovative and disciplined approaches to charitable giving and capital stewardship.

Operating at the intersection of philanthropy, governance, innovation and long-term sustainability, the charity is developing a model designed to create enduring impact over generations. Through its donor-advised fund structure, the charity seeks to provide a flexible, forward-thinking platform for strategic philanthropy, long-term giving and responsible stewardship of charitable capital.

The charity operates within a lean and agile environment and is seeking individuals who are comfortable navigating complexity, supporting innovation responsibly and helping shape scalable structures for long-term success.

The Opportunity

The Chairman will play a critical role in guiding the strategic direction, governance and long-term development of the charity. This individual will provide strong leadership to the Board, support effective decision-making and act as a trusted partner to the executive leadership and wider stakeholder group. As a young organisation the Chair will play an active role ensuring robust controls and responsible decision making across the organisation.

  • Foster a collaborative, high-performing and solutions-oriented Board culture
  • Provide guidance and effective challenge to executive leadership
  • Support effective stakeholder engagement and external representation
  • Help balance innovation, agility and responsible governance within a fast-moving environment aligned with the organisations charitable purposes
  • Contribute to the continued institutional development and sustainability of the charity

Candidate Profile

We are seeking an individual who is:

  • Solutions-oriented and commercially minded
  • Entrepreneurial in approach and comfortable with ambiguity
  • A strong communicator with sound judgement and integrity
  • Comfortable operating within complex and evolving environments
  • Experienced in governance, boards, trusteeship or senior leadership positions
  • Able to support strategic growth while maintaining appropriate oversight and accountability

Candidates with experience in international structures, philanthropy, investment governance, technology-led environments or institutional scaling would be particularly valuable.

Essential Experience

  • Previous Board, Chair, Trustee, Non-Executive or senior leadership experience
  • Strong understanding of governance and organisational leadership
  • Experience operating within complex stakeholder environments
  • Strategic and commercially aware mindset
  • Ability to support both strategic thinking and practical execution in a lean organisation

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
