You don’t need years of experience - we’re seeking someone with a keen eye on what’s important to us: impact, quality, engagement and accessibility. We particularly welcome early-career candidates and those familiar with the further education and skills sector.

The EAUC is the leading body for sustainability in the post-16 education sector in the UK and Republic of Ireland. We represent 300+ institutions with collectively over 2 million students, nearly 400,000 staff and a spending budget of over £25 billion. We exist to lead and empower the post-16 education sector to embed sustainability in everything it does: equipping learners for their lives and shaping society for the better.
 

Who we’re looking for

The EAUC board is made up of twelve volunteer trustees. We have one long-standing trustee who reaches the end of their tenure at the July 2024 AGM so we have ONE available trustee position.

The new trustee we are seeking will be passionate and innovative with knowledge or experience in the further education sector, whether this is a college, adult education, employment-based learning or a community-based provision.

We’ve developed a trustee information pack containing full details about the role, what it entails and how to apply. Please do consider joining us, or send  this to colleagues and contacts who are well suited to help us achieve our goals.
