Suneet Sharma

I am a non-profit governance specialist with a legal background. I currently work part-time as Governance and Membership Manager for the Association for Language Learning (a 3,500-member subject association) and take on consultancy projects alongside this focused-on charity registrations, Charity Commission engagement, governance builds for growing charities, and SORP 2026 readiness. I have a particular interest in identity-led charities.

I have a strong track record of Charity Commission approvals across registrations, constitutional amendments and a high-stakes Chair-to-CEO conflict-of-interest application. My governance framework work spans four charities where I built from a minimal baseline, drafting over twenty policies, three risk registers and compliance systems.

I write quarterly on charity governance for Charity Times and the Association of Chairs, and have published Eastside People’s SORP 2026 Guide. I panelled at Festival of Trusteeship 2025 and run the Sharma on Governance resource. Twice a trustee and a Deputy CEO of Governance, Risk and Compliance for identity-led charities and co-founder of the SEGA Europe LGBTQ+ Staff Network (Progression Advocate Award 2022; British LGBT Awards Top 10 ERG 2021), I am passionate about entrenching lived experience strategically inside governance frameworks.
