About the role:
MAG is looking for one new Trustee with deep experience of and access to major and emerging philanthropic markets.

We are ideally looking for someone with access to emerging markets, including but not limited to Gulf states. Prior experience of philanthropic giving (either as a donor or a fundraiser) is not essential, though you will need to demonstrate an ability to help us identify and leverage opportunities in such markets. Prior charity Board experience is also not imperative as we are open to a first-time Trustee as much as someone looking to deepen their existing governance portfolio. What will be important to us is a willingness to learn, to work productively with Board, Executive and relevant staff colleagues, and a shared ambition for MAG’s future.
Please also note that we are open to candidates both in and outside the UK.
