New Chair to Join the Board of Trustees

We work with children who show the greatest courage every day in the face of adversity. We need leadership that matches that bravery.”
 — Ellie Brook, CEO & Founder, EdShift

As EdShift transitions from a Community Interest Company (CIC) to a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO), we are seeking a strategic, values-driven Chair of Trustees to lead our Board into this next vital chapter.

We’re not just filling a seat,  we’re looking for a bold, ethical leader. A true partner to our CEO. Someone who believes in early intervention, creative approaches to trauma recovery, and building a world where child victim-survivors of domestic abuse are seen, heard, and healed.

As Chair, you will:

• Provide strategic leadership to the board, supporting EdShift’s governance and vision.
  
  
• Work closely with the CEO as a critical friend and co-pilot in strategic planning.
  
  
• Ensure high standards of governance, safeguarding, and financial oversight.
  
  
• Champion the voices of lived experience and uphold a culture of inclusion.
  
  
• Guide the board to challenge constructively, think boldly, and act ethically.
  
  
• Promote transparency and accountability to stakeholders and funders.
