Wessex Cancer Support is seeking an inspiring and committed individual to become our next Chair of Trustees.
Our current Chair is nearing the end of her term, and as part of our planned succession we are now seeking to appoint a Trustee who will step into the role of Chair of Trustees following a structured and supportive transition.
Working closely with the Chief Executive and Board of Trustees, you will provide strategic leadership, ensure effective governance and help guide the charity through its next chapter.

What skills do I need?
We are looking for someone who:
- Has senior leadership, executive, trustee or board-level experience
- Can think strategically and build strong relationships
- Is passionate about making a difference to people affected by cancer
