Board Member vacancies £15.40ph

Leicestershire and Rutland Probation Trust

The future of the National Offender Management Service rests with people like you. People who are passionate about protecting the public, reducing re-offending – and helping ex-offenders back into meaningful roles within their communities.

Of course, in order to do this in an increasingly challenging and complex world, it takes more than just the right motivation. It takes real leadership and strategic insight; strong on people and financial management; with the ability to drive change and enhance performance. It also takes an open mind, a commitment to celebrating diversity and, above all, the integrity and business acumen needed to make profound, results-oriented decisions that can create our future and turn individual offenders around.

If these are skills you possess – and you can offer up to five days a month as a Trust Board Member – applying them here means the opportunity to play a major role in transforming the service and, as a result, making a significant difference to the lives of the people in your community.

Closing date for receipt of applications is Friday, 8 June 2012 at 4pm. A presentation evening for prospective applicants is being held at the Trust’s headquarters in Leicester on Thursday, 31 May 2012 at 6pm.  If you would like to attend the presentation or request an application pack please telephone Sarah Brookes, Board Secretary on 0116 242 3273 or email: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
