Seeking new Chair of the Board and new Board members

Birmingham Friends of the Earth Ltd (BFoE) is seeking a new Chair of its Board and two new board members.

BFoE, which runs The Warehouse, exists to promote positive environmental change by increasing awareness. 

Campaigns activity is delegated to our thriving campaigns group, which meets weekly, so the Board’s work is mainly on governance of the organisation as a whole and ensuring the operation of the building meets our objectives.

The Warehouse is a friendly and thriving hub for the city’s environmental and social activism with a proud history and strong networks. It comprises meeting and office space, a vegan cafe and events space, shops selling bikes, vegan sweets and sustainable household goods, a community radio station and a community garden.

We’re seeking people with environmental commitment, a cooperative nature and (for the chair) experience of leading organisational development. For the board members, we’re interested in a wide range of expertise and skills including project management, property management and HR. The important thing is the time and commitment to what we do!
