Chair of the Board of Trustees Vacancy

We’re excited to be recruiting a new Chair of the Board of Trustees.

Do you have a passion for campaigning to improve early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer? Do you want to make a positive difference to the lives of patients and families living with the realities of a diagnosis?

If the answer is yes, and you are a respected strategic leader with significant experience in chairing Boards then this could be the perfect role for you.

The Chair of the Board will ensure that we continue to achieve our charitable objectives, remain in a strong financial position, and put patients and families at the heart of decision-making.

As Chair, you will be working with a dedicated Board of Trustees whose diversity of skills, personal qualities and experience make it a powerful team that works collaboratively and with energy.

You will lead the Board in steering Pancreatic Cancer Action’s strategic direction and ensuring its continued growth and success.
