We are partnering with theSocial Interest Group ('SIG') to appoint a new Treasurer to join their board. SIG brings charities together to work under one umbrella focusing on delivering good quality social and health care services. They build powerful partnerships and creative solutions providing bespoke person-centred health and social care services through?six subsidiaries, bridging gaps in provision and aid recovery, reablement and resettlement, supporting thousands of people with good-quality support and care in residential services, drop-in centres, community floating support settings (including people's own homes), criminal justice and probation settings, and hospitals awaiting discharge. SIG's Mission is to create solutions that bridge the gaps in local health and social care, getting people out of hospital, out of prison and off the streets.

SIG is a not-for-profit organisation (the parent company), who together with their subsidiary charities SIG Penrose, SIG Housing Trust, SIG Equinox, SIG Pathways to Independence and SIG Safe Ground, SIG delivers a diverse range of specialist services designed to support people facing complex challenges. From substance use and mental health to homelessness, criminal justice, and personality disorders, SIG's residential and community-based programmes are tailored to meet individual needs in order to ensure that people in our society have every opportunity to live fulfilled, healthy and constructive lives. SIG also offer dedicated services for women, ensuring gender-responsive support across multiple regions.

They do so across London, Brighton, Bedfordshire, Luton, and Kent. They also support people in prisons, currently delivering services in London and Liverpool.

Through their values they are committed to:

Delivering excellence and innovation
Promoting equality and mutual respect
A belief that positive change is possible
Involving and consulting service users
Active citizenship and community involvement
Valuing staff, harnessing their full potential

They are keen to have an inclusive board, therefore backgrounds and experience though important is matched by the need for the passion, ambition and interest to help SIG fulfil its mission.

As mentioned, your background is less important but if you are either within the charity or non-profit sector or within an organisation that operates in a similar environment, engaged in the housing profession or a service user or carer, this is of particular interest to the current board.

The successful candidates will demonstrate:

A clear commitment to the charity's mission and values, with a genuine passion for making a positive impact in the community
The capacity to participate actively and from an informed position
A willingness to use personal networks and resources of relevance to SIG's charitable purpose
A passion for their work, and to promoting SIG and its subsidiaries as an organisation
A firm understanding and respect for the Nolan Principles of Public Life
