The role of Trustee is enjoyable, important and rewarding — offering the opportunity to help shape the direction of the Institution and deliver the ILP’s roadmap for the future – Strategy 2026. It also offers the chance to meet and work with people from different backgrounds, sectors and experiences within the lighting industry.
Our 8 Trustees hold overall legal responsibility for the charity. This is a hybrid voluntary role of online and in-person meetings throughout the year. As a Trustee, you can truly make a difference, and use your experiences to help support and grow the lighting profession. As a member of the ILP Board of Trustees, you will be joining an inclusive culture where healthy, respectful debate is part of the process.
We’re looking for candidates who fully support our charitable objectives. As a Trustee, you will also act as an ambassador for the ILP.
