About the Role
Greater Leeds, United Kingdom Area (Hybrid - Headquarter location)
The Company is seeking a new Chair to lead its Board of Trustees in a pivotal role that will shape the future of cancer prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and support across the region. The successful candidate will be responsible for providing strategic clarity, strong governance, and a deep commitment to improving cancer outcomes. This includes guiding the organization through a rapidly evolving external environment, ensuring that the charity remains ambitious, resilient, and trusted by the communities it serves. The Chair will also act as an ambassador, building trusted relationships with partners and supporters, and supporting the Chief Executive and Executive team during a period of significant growth and influence. Applicants for the Chair position should be experienced Board leaders, ideally with previous Chair or Committee Chair experience, and be comfortable operating in complex, multi-stakeholder environments. The role requires sound judgment, integrity, and the ability to unite diverse perspectives. A strong connection to the region, or the ability to build one, is essential, as is a personal commitment to equity, diversity, and tackling inequalities. The Chair will play a key role in ensuring that the organization's vision of a region where more people live longer, healthier lives free from cancer is realized, and that the focus on tackling inequalities remains central to all decisions.
