Full job description

About the role

We have the exciting and rare opportunity to join the Coventry Building Society Charitable Foundation’s Board of Trustees on a voluntary basis. The Foundation is a registered charity, incorporated in November 1998, and operates as a separate legal entity from Coventry Building Society. While the Foundation receives funding from the Society, it is governed independently, with decisions made by its Board of Trustees in line with its charitable purpose and governing documents.

The Foundation provides financial assistance in the form of grants to charities and community groups, with a strong focus on the Coventry area. Its charitable aims align closely with the Society’s community themes, including education and aspiration for young people, tackling homelessness and building financial resilience, and reducing isolation and vulnerability. The role holder will join a small and committed Board, currently comprising three Trustees, and will play an important part in shaping the Foundation’s impact within the local community.

The person in post will share collective responsibility for overseeing the Foundation’s funds and ensuring that its activities are delivered in accordance with legal, regulatory and governance requirements. This role involves contributing to decisions on grant approvals, monitoring the effective distribution of funds, setting the strategic direction of the Foundation and approving key documentation, including contracts, policies, the Annual Report and Accounts, and the Foundation’s Risk Register. The role holder will also help to ensure that robust governance, due diligence and training arrangements are in place and operating effectively.

Trustees meet at least four times a year, on a quarterly basis, with each meeting lasting approximately two hours. This role offers the opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to the Coventry community, working collaboratively with fellow Trustees to ensure the Foundation continues to deliver positive and lasting social impact.

The successful candidate will attend meetings fully prepared and provide valuable contributions, insights and challenges, to ensure that the Foundation meets its charitable aims.

About you

For this role you'll need:

Knowledge of the local area and alignment with the charitable aims of the Foundation.
Experience in providing support to their community .
Understanding of importance of enhancing the diversity, knowledge, skills, and experiences at Board level.

The successful candidate will join a friendly and enthusiastic group of likeminded Trustees and regular meeting attendees. The role presents a valuable opportunity to offer your unique skill set to the shared focus of the Foundation.

About us

In 2025, Coventry Building Society purchased The Co-operative Bank. Bringing together our purpose-led building society with the UK’s original ethical bank was the start of an exciting journey.

Trusted by over four million people, we’re a mutually owned business free from shareholders, and with our combined experience of almost 300 years, our ethics and dedication will continue to guide us. Together, we have shared values and an ethical approach towards our members, customers and colleagues.

We’re officially recognised as a ‘Great Place to Work’ and our benefits go beyond basic pay, with a discretionary bonus scheme, a culture of reward and recognition and comprehensive support for wellbeing.

We’re serious about equality, of race, age, faith, disability, and sexual orientation and we celebrate diversity. By working together, we know you’ll build more than just a career with us.

Flexibility and why it matters

We understand the need for flexibility, so wherever possible, we’ll consider alternative working patterns. Have a chat with us before you apply to see what the possibilities are for this role.

Proud to be a Disability Confident Committed Employer
