Join Novar’s Leadership Board

Novar is growing, and we’re looking for passionate, driven people to help lead the way.

These are voluntary and unpaid roles for now, but as Novar expands and secures funding, they may evolve into paid positions in the future (no promises, only possibilities).

You’ll be among the key people shaping Novar’s vision and growth, helping turn ideas into impact. The roles are not full-time, but they do require commitment, consistency and dedication as these leadership positions will play key roles in helping Novar grow and define its direction.

Being a UK resident is desirable for easier coordination and collaboration within the team.

If you believe young voices belong in policy and diplomacy, this is your space to make it real.
