You’ll get a deeper look into the inner workings of Offset - insights into business and development can be a great asset to your CV.

You can help make sure that they have the most exciting and relevant opportunities to contribute to change; experience the unique and imaginative; grow a career; stretch out of their comfort zone; and be sociable.
You’ll connect with Offset’s directors, fellow Board members and key figures in the wider community. You’ll grow your network and confidence as you share your thoughts and views with others – an important skill in any career. You’ll become more comfortable with public speaking, debate and discussion techniques.
You don’t need previous experience of being on a Board, or any particular qualifications. Your experience of being under 25 will play a crucial role in helping make strategic decisions that benefit other under 25s.
