Birthrights is looking for our next Chair of the Board of Trustees.

Could this be you?

Birthrights is seeking a Chair who leads with courage, compassion, and conviction — a leader with the energy, passion, and radical vision to guide us through this next phase of our journey.

You will bring integrity, authenticity, and courage, and understand how to draw the very best from a governing body. Whether your experience comes from community movements, charities, or the corporate world, what matters most is your ability to lead with purpose, listen deeply, and inspire collective action grounded in justice and care.

As Chair, you will help Birthrights fulfil its mission by providing visionary leadership and strategic guidance, nurturing a culture that is values-driven, anti-oppressive, and rooted in community. You will champion human rights and accountability in every decision, ensuring Birthrights continues to be a powerful force for change across the maternity system.
