The client, a Sligo-based charity focused on supporting individuals impacted by neurological conditions in the Northwest, is seeking a trustee with a legal background to join their Board. The ideal candidate will have recent and relevant commercial experience and will play a key role in providing strategic direction, policy development, and legal expertise to the organization.
