Current opportunity

An exciting opportunity has arisen within Tenants Association Coatshill and Thornhill Management Committee (TACT) for trustees to join our Board. We are currently working with South Lanarkshire Council to complete a Community Asset Transfer for the TACT building and grounds in Blantyre. At present, TACT is an unincorporated association with charitable status but a new structure namely a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (SCIO) will soon be formed. The current board has a diverse combination of skills and experiences. Candidates with a background in general administration, current or previous voluntary sector experience would be particularly welcomed but this is not a condition as full training will be given. Some board members duties include: • Attending board meetings monthly. • Ensuring good governance of the organisation. • Contributing to policies and procedures • Fostering positive working relationships • Working collectively with other board members, The role will involve overseeing the current service and development of future projects, like the Community Asset Transfer, and contributing proactively to the Board in reaching quality decisions. We meet monthly for around 2 hours and have occasional correspondence in between meetings for any business that cannot wait until the next meeting. Additional time will be required from the successful candidate to pursue project activity. If you feel you have the time and the passion to make a difference to our organisation by becoming a board member please get in touch for an informal chat.
