CEO/trustee conflict of interest question

Running your Charity

Hi everyone,
I am in the process of starting a new charity and am finding it rather daunting.
I will be using the CIO model in the U.K. but have a couple of questions I hope someone can help me with.
Firstly is it recommended for a paid CEO of a charity to be a trustee as long as the conflict of interest is well managed?
Secondly would I need to be a trustee first to register for the charity commission and then be appointed by the other trustees as CEO after registration is approved?
Any advice would be gratefully received.
Thank you
Karen
