MYPAS is a charity that provides free and confidential services for children and young people aged 10-21 years old across Midlothian and East Lothian, currently focusing on the key areas of mental health, substance use harm reduction and LGBT+ support. Demand for these services is high and increasing.

We are currently looking for enthusiastic individuals with Business experience to join our Board to support the governance and strategic leadership of the charity.

We are particularly interested in people who have experience of running a Business or Organisation, with knowledge and experience in the following areas:

• Business Management & Strategy
• HR, including recruitment & staff management
• Experience of employment law, employment policies
• Financial management, reporting and analysis
• Budgeting and budgetary control
• Planning and project management
• Leadership and change management

If your experience looks a little different, but you think you can bring value to our Board, we’d like to learn more about you.

Previous experience of being a Board member is not essential as training and mentoring will be available to the successful candidate(s) to develop their skills if necessary.

As a voluntary position, it will not be paid but travel and other expenses for attendance at meetings are reimbursed in line with our policy.
