2 x Trustees Transform Drug Policy Foundation

Job description

Transform Drug Policy Foundation is a global leader in developing, and advocating for, more humane drug policies. Our vision is a world where drug policy contributes to safer and healthier societies. We want to recruit two trustees to help drive forward our work.

This is an exciting time in drug policy. Rapid changes in approach are occurring in the UK and internationally. Transform has a long history of shaping these changes and seeking to ensure that reform reduces harm, improves social justice and protects public health. Our Anyone’s Child campaign is a highly effective family-led movement that has had a significant impact here and abroad.

You can find out more about our work via our website.

Our new trustees will help ensure that we further improve our ability to reflect the needs of those most affected by current drug policy: in particular, black and minority ethnic groups and the socially excluded.

We are particularly seeking trustees with expertise in the following areas

  • Professional experience of working with drug-related issues and people who use drugs (e.g. Police, health and service provision)
  • Legal and charity governance

We welcome applications from all candidates with the skills and commitment to support the work of Transform. We especially welcome applications from black and minority ethnic candidates as part of our commitment to ensuring a full diversity of experience is reflected in our work. We are also interested to hear from candidates with personal lived experience which informs their understanding of the need for drug policy reform.

Applicants should enclose a CV and a brief covering letter explaining why they would like to support our work and what particular skills and experience they would bring. We would be grateful if applicants could also complete the attached diversity monitoring form to submit with your application.

If you have any queries, or would like to know more about Transform, please email our Chief Executive Officer, Alex Feis-Bryce.

Deadline for applications: 23.59 Sunday 12th February 2023
