Governance

Good governance builds great charities.

For more than 177 years, The Salespeople’s Charity has been guided by volunteers committed to acting in the best interests of both the charity and the profession we serve.

Our Trustees are responsible for the charity’s overall strategy, governance and financial stewardship. Together, they ensure that every decision supports our charitable purpose and that every pound entrusted to us is used responsibly and effectively.

Our Board of Trustees

Our Board is made up of volunteers from a range of professional backgrounds.

Ove the years, many have extensive experience in sales, while others bring expertise in areas such as finance, marketing, technology, law, governance and social welfare.

This diversity of experience helps us make balanced decisions, challenge one another constructively and ensure the charity continues to evolve.

Interested in becoming a Trustee? We’re always keen to hear from people who are passionate about supporting salespeople and strengthening our profession.
