Exeter Historic Buildings Trust – Trustee Vacancies

Are you passionate about heritage and historic buildings? Would you like to work with a vibrant and forward-thinking organisation working to preserve Exeter’s historic fabric? Exeter Historic Buildings Trust is currently looking for trustees to join its board. 

Exeter Historic Building Trust (EHBT) was founded in 1996 to rescue the 11th century former refectory wing of St Nicholas Priory and now works to preserve for the benefit of the people of Exeter, and of the nation at large, the historical architectural heritage of the city. To find out more about the Trust’s work, please visit our website at www.ehbt.org.uk

 In 2018, the Trust also acquired the west wing of the Priory, with the intention of returning it to community use.  The Trust’s regular activity is to maintain the Priory and open it to the public. We have a regular programme of tours and events, including cookery demonstrations, performances and historical re-enactments.  For a full review of our events, please visit Priory website at www.nicholaspriory.com 

We welcome applications for this voluntary role from both those who have experience of being a trustee and those who are new to the role. Following the retirement of our treasurer, we particularly welcome applications from people with a background in finance or accounting to help manage the financial aspects of the Trust’s work, supported by our bookkeeper. 

To apply, please send your CV and a covering letter explaining your interest in the role to admin@ehbt.org.uk 

If you would like more information about Exeter Historic Buildings Trust or the role, please email admin@ehbt.org.uk,  or to organise an informal discussion regarding either, please email Katharine Chant at secretary@ehbt.org.uk
