For over 200 years, Right There has been at the forefront of supporting people and communities across Scotland. Each year, we work alongside almost 4,000 children, families, and individuals affected by poverty, homelessness, addiction, and fractured relationships.
We believe everyone deserves an equal chance to create a safe and supportive place to call home, not just a roof, but somewhere they feel protected, accepted, and able to rebuild their lives. Every journey is different, so we tailor our response to the individual, challenge stereotypes, and work without judgement.
As we respond to a national housing emergency and enter our next strategic planning cycle, we are seeking an exceptional Chair of the Board of Trustees to help shape the organisation’s next chapter. This is a pivotal leadership role, providing clear direction to the Board, strengthening governance, and supporting the Chief Executive to deliver Right There’s charitable and strategic objectives.
You will be a senior strategic leader with a strong track record in growth, transformation, and governance, able to build trusted relationships, influence effectively, and provide constructive challenge. Whilst previous board experience is preferable, we also welcome candidates with senior leadership or executive board experience who are seeking a trustee role for the first time.
Right There is a unique organisation, full of committed people inspired by our values and the mission to create positive change. As Chair, you will play a central role in supporting a highly motivated and passionate Board of Trustees and senior leadership team to safeguard the organisation’s vision, strengthen its impact, and ensure it thrives for the future.
