Connected Voice

Project 560 is at a pivotal moment. Working to incorporate as a Community Interest Company (CIC), we are building the strategic leadership team required to secure our first physical venue in the North East. We are looking for four "Founding Trustees" to lead the following areas: Treasurer: Overseeing financial modelling, CIC compliance, and sustainable growth. Secretary & Governance: Managing board logistics, minutes, and regulatory filings. EDI & Intersectional Lead: Ensuring radical inclusion and safety are built into our DNA. Community Liaison: Building local partnerships and acting as our primary ambassador. What we are looking for: We value lived experience as much as professional expertise. We need strategic thinkers who are comfortable with "Day 1" start-up challenges and who are deeply committed to creating safe, joy-filled spaces for the queer community in the North East. Time Commitment & Pattern: Commitment: Approx. 3-5 hours per month. Meetings: Monthly or quarterly depending on business needs. Location: We prefer local candidates; meetings are typically in-person in Newcastle to build team connection, with virtual options available. Dates are planned collaboratively to suit everyone's schedules.
