Vacancies

Transition Town Totnes is in an exciting new phase and we're looking for two new Trustees to be a part of the change.

If you have experience of working in the community/ charity sector, this could be the ideal opportunity to get involved in TTT at this exciting time. In particular, we’re looking for people involved in the fields of social change and environmental sustainability, facilitation, organisational strategy and/ or charity financial management. 

Ideally, our new Trustees will have the passion, enthusiasm and experience to make a difference to our organisation as we evolve and innovate. We currently have 4 Trustees whose broad experience includes: law, education, health, coaching and organisational management. The TTT Board of Trustees works to ensure the charity is properly governed and managed, and to provide strategy, scrutiny and support.

TTT is a community-led charity (no. 1138865) working to create a sustainable and healthy community within our local area. We do this by catalysing, supporting, and collaborating with a diverse portfolio of grass-roots projects, enterprises, partnerships, and individuals embedded in the town of Totnes, South Devon. With our Coordination, these groups form a movement that innovates models of community leadership and systems thinking across different sectors, whilst simultaneously working towards a common vision – ‘To build a happy, healthy, caring community that is environmentally, economically, and socially resilient in a changing world’.

We manage, deliver, and collaborate with a number of projects and partnerships based on our key themes:

• Food
• Local economy 
• Health and wellbeing
• Housing, building, energy, and transport 
• Inner-transition 
• The arts 
• Waste & resources

Building on 14 years of experience in supporting and developing sustainable initiatives in the community, and inspiring a worldwide movement, TTT is going through an exciting new phase with further funding, new projects, community leaders, and a new Coordinator. 

We are now looking for enthusiastic and engaged people to join our team in this exciting time.
