Become a Director

We are recruiting Directors and Associate Directors!

Huish is a group of six educational organisations based in Taunton that spans nursery, primary and further education, committed to delivering exceptional education for all. We have an enviable reputation in the local area built upon a long history of excellence.

We are inviting expressions of interest from innovative and dynamic individuals from a diverse range of backgrounds who share our vision and can help us deliver our ambitions as part of our Board of Directors for the Richard Huish Trust.  Director and Associate Director roles are both voluntary.  We are welcome individuals who feel they may be able to bring completely different points of views and experiences to our current directors due to their backgrounds, upbringing, and/or life experiences.

Directors are fully appointed non executive roles (also known as Trustees) to the Trust Board with an initial term of office of four years.  Associate Directors are appointed on an annual basis to one or more committees where they provide specific technical support to the work of the committee(s).

We have variety of skills based positions available, but most important is your ability to challenge executives at a strategic level and to have the time to commit to the role.  We are also looking to build a succession plan over time so if this of something that might be of interest to you in the future then we would also welcome a conversation.

Please get in touch with us to discuss further if you feel you have the skills, experience and time to contribute to the Richard Huish Trust by emailing richardhuishtrust@richuish.ac.uk
