Job Summary
Job Description
As custodians of one of the world’s finest surviving industrial worker villages, Port Sunlight Village Trust is seeking new Trustees to join our Board and support our mission to preserve, promote, and evolve this unique heritage site and community in Wirral.
For over 25 years, we have cared for Port Sunlight’s historic buildings, landscapes, and museum, while celebrating the stories of its people, together with being a residential and commercial landlord with a commitment to positive community engagement. With bold plans for the development of the charity and the village, this is a pivotal moment to get involved.
As a Trustee, you will help shape the future of Port Sunlight by:
- Playing a central role in our ambitious plans.
- Supporting innovative learning programmes and research.
- Helping us thrive as a charity that relies on visitors, donors, and supporters.
- Being involved with our resident advisory groups and Board working groups.
The role is voluntary with reasonable expenses including travel covered. Commitment is part time and will involve attending 4 board meetings per year, 2 away-days, plus working and advisory group involvement.

Potential applicants do not need to work in heritage or housing to apply. Expertise in areas such as regeneration, landscape management, cultural and visitor destination development, capital projects, data management, and legal affairs is especially valuable.
We are particularly encouraging applications from underrepresented groups, including people under the age of 34 or 49, individuals with lived experience of disability, ethnically diverse candidates, LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent individuals.
