Naomi House & Jacksplace provide essential care and support to children and young people with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions across the south of England. For over 25 years, we’ve been there for families on the good days, difficult days, and last days— helping to make the most of every precious moment together.
  
As we embark on an exciting period of growth and investment—refurbishing our hospices, expanding our services, and strengthening our position as a regional centre of excellence—we are seeking a new Trustee with senior-level experience in digital and IT leadership.
  
It’s a chance to use your knowledge to give back, to play a meaningful part in the next chapter of our much-loved charity, and to help us deliver outstanding care by shaping our digital transformation. You’ll work alongside fellow Trustees and a passionate leadership team to support the continued improvement of our systems—covering areas such as data governance, CRM, patient records, finance, and information systems.
  
We are particularly keen to hear from candidates who:

Have held a senior digital, data or technology leadership role in a large, complex organisation (commercial, public sector or charity)
Can offer strategic insight into digital change or transformation
Are excited by the opportunity to bring their experience to a heartfelt cause
Are new or experienced in Trustee or NED roles—this could be your first You don’t need to be a digital health expert or know the hospice world inside out—what matters most is your compassion, integrity, and willingness to support our work with care and professionalism. If you are looking for a meaningful way to give back and make a lasting impact, we’d love to hear from you.
  
Why join us now?
We were recently rated Outstanding by the CQC and are investing significantly across our buildings, services, brand, and digital infrastructure ahead of our 30th anniversary in 2027. With a clear strategy, a committed team, and a powerful mission, this is a unique time to contribute.
  
Practical details:
Trustees attend 6 Board meetings per year (in person, in Sutton Scotney) and 4 Committee meetings remotely. Additional time may be required to contribute to working groups or strategic initiatives. The role is unremunerated but reasonable expenses will be paid.
  
How to Apply
If you are interested in this opportunity, please submit an initial application/expression of interest. Shortlisted candidates will be provided with a full Candidate Information Pack and invited to submit a cover letter outlining their interest in the role and a brief summary of how they meet the key criteria

How to Find Hidden Data Science Jobs in the UK Using Professional Bodies like the RSS, BCS & More

The data science job market in the UK is thriving—but also increasingly competitive. As organisations in finance, healthcare, retail, government, and tech accelerate digital transformation, the demand for data talent has soared. Yet many of the best data science jobs are never posted publicly. They’re shared behind closed doors—within professional networks, at invite-only events, or through member-only mailing lists and specialist interest groups. These “hidden” roles are often filled through referrals, collaborations, or direct outreach to trusted experts. In this guide, we’ll show you how to unlock these hidden opportunities by engaging with key UK professional bodies such as the Royal Statistical Society (RSS), BCS (The Chartered Institute for IT), and Turing Society, plus communities like PyData and AI UK. You’ll learn how to use directories, CPD events, and networks to move beyond job boards—and into roles where you’re approached, not just applying.

This guide will walk you through how to bounce back from redundancy with purpose and clarity—whether you're a data analyst looking to step up, a mid-level data scientist, or a machine learning specialist seeking a better-aligned opportunity.
