About GMWSA

Greater Manchester Women’s Support Alliance brings together nine Member and Associate women’s centres serving all ten Greater Manchester boroughs. Together, the Alliance helps women involved in the criminal justice system, at risk of offending or experiencing multiple disadvantage to access coordinated, trauma-responsive support in their communities.

GMWSA is both a strategic alliance and a contract-holding organisation. It coordinates major commissioned work across Greater Manchester, supports delivery through local women’s centres and represents a pan-Greater Manchester view in partnerships concerned with women, justice, health and gender-based violence. Its work includes community-based probation services, support at HMP Styal and health-focused initiatives delivered with NHS and voluntary-sector partners.

About the role

This maternity-cover appointment comes at an important point in GMWSA’s development. The substantive Chief Executive has built strong relationships and a significant portfolio of work. During her absence, the Alliance needs a confident interim leader who can maintain momentum, give staff and partners clarity, and ensure that major commitments continue to be delivered well.

Alongside business continuity, there is meaningful development work to lead. GMWSA is resetting its strategic purpose, strengthening the way its Board and membership work together, and preparing for the possible retender of service contracts.

The successful candidate will keep delivery on track while helping the Board and members make practical progress on these priorities.

You will lead a small core team and work across a wider network of project staff, secondees, women’s centres, commissioners and strategic partners. This is a hands-on role requiring sound judgement, strong relationships and the confidence to move between operational detail and system-level influence.

Key responsibilities

·  Provide visible, values-led executive leadership throughout the maternity-cover period.

·  Maintain oversight of contracts, services, safeguarding, performance, finance and organisational risk.

·  Lead readiness for a potential contract retender, coordinating members, evidence, relationships and bid planning.

·  Work with trustees to strengthen governance, clarify accountability and support Chair and Treasurer recruitment and induction.

·  Bring members together around a clearer strategic purpose and a sustainable future for the Alliance.

Who we are looking for

We are looking for an experienced Chief Executive, Interim Chief Executive or senior leader who can establish credibility quickly and combine calm stewardship with constructive change.

You will be comfortable leading a small organisation that operates through partnerships, commissioned services and influence rather than a large directly delivered service base.

The successful candidate will bring:

·  Senior leadership experience in a charity, public-service or other mission-led setting.

·  A strong understanding of commissioned services, contract performance and the disciplines required of a prime provider or accountable body.

·  Strong external relationship and influencing skills, including the ability to hold constructive boundaries with commissioners.

Why join GMWSA?

This is an opportunity to make a tangible difference in a focused period: protecting high-value services for women, supporting a committed team and membership, and helping an established Alliance take its next steps with greater clarity and confidence.

The role offers genuine scope to influence that work while maintaining the relationships and operational grip on which women and partners rely.

How to apply

Full information about the role and the application process will be available on the Peridot Partners microsite. Applications will close on a date to be confirmed.

For a confidential discussion, please contact Bill Yuksel at Peridot Partners.

This post is restricted to women as an occupational requirement under Schedule 9, Part 1 of the Equality Act 2010. Appointment will be subject to appropriate pre-employment checks, including a DBS check.

The Senior Philanthropy Manager will play a leading role in shaping the future of philanthropy at the charity. Working alongside the High Value Relationships Lead, you'll lead the continued growth of the Philanthropy programme, developing long-term relationships with high-net-worth individuals and securing major gifts to help deliver the charity's fundraising ambitions. As well as working closely with a new Prospect Development Manager to build and manage your own portfolio and pipeline, you'll also line manage the Philanthropy Manager, providing day-to-day leadership, coaching and support, while driving strong portfolio management, income forecasting and cross-organisational collaboration to develop compelling funding propositions.

The selected candidate will have a strong track record of securing and managing five and six-figure philanthropic gifts, with demonstrable experience building trusted long-term relationships that lead to transformational support. You'll bring excellent stakeholder management and influencing skills, experience developing tailored cultivation/solicitation/ stewardship plans, and confidence using a CRM to manage pipeline and forecasting. You'll also be excited about line managing (perhaps for the first time formally), and be motivated by the charity's mission and values, with the ability to work collaboratively across a complex organisation.

If you require the use of AI software to aid in completing your application, we ask you use the generative responses as a prompt for writing your answers and avoid copying and pasting. You must also ensure the information presented in your application accurately reflects your experience.
