Job description
We're FIRST UK: an EdTech charity using robots, role models and competitions to make STEM more approachable and inclusive – empowering young people with the technical and life skills to engineer bright futures.
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
An exceptional leader who will deploy a systematic approach to identify, build and retain relationships with educators, employers, government which will underpin our growth – whilst ensuring safety, quality, and impact of experience for young people, teachers, volunteers.
As Delivery Director, you will be the senior leader accountable for two inextricably linked elements:
- Growth - more schools, teachers, young people, employers, volunteers
- Scalability - overseeing safe, high-quality, efficient, replicable deliver
You will implement the growth architecture which scales the charity’s impact through:
- Proactive, targeted growth in regional hubs aligned to strategic objectives
- Better, earlier, sustained engagement with schools and educators
- System-level entry points through MATs, educator networks, strategic partners
- Retention mechanisms that embed participation institutionally
- Ownership of quality & impact measures supporting participation, completion, return
- Regional industry partner/employer pipeline building, conversion, stewardship
- Volunteer and alumni community oversight, experience and quality
WHAT YOU’LL GET
In addition to a genuinely distinctive mission, making STEM accessible to young people who are too often excluded from it, alongside measurable, evidenced outcomes and a growing profile with funders and media you'll have:
- Leadership, autonomy and sense of purpose
- A compelling value proposition and strong operational platform to build on
- A well-defined strategy to execute against
- Sector credibility, positive reputation and relationships to grow
- Competitive salary, benefits in a lean, agile and fast-paced organisation
You will be the leader who takes a charity from start-up mode to a nationally recognised, regionally embedded impact organisation – transforming the outlook for thousands of young people annually.
WHO MIGHT THIS ROLE SUIT
Someone who 'gets' growth and has credible experience owning and scaling a programme, product, or service. You’re systematic in approach whilst appreciating the power of relationships and delivery through others. A sophisticated leader you motivate, coach and support others to achieve more. You see both the challenges and opportunities within a high growth potential organisation and are always ahead of them.
I love the sound of this; is there more I need to know?
If there is, we'll chat about it at the ‘get to know’ stage.
CONDITIONS
We don’t talk about benefits; we talk about culture. It’s not how many hours you work or where you work them – it’s what you deliver.
- Competitive salary - £75K - £84K per annum
- 28 days annual leave + 8 bank hols + Xmas gift
- Remote/flexible working
- 3% pension + death in service (4 x annual salary)
- Generous enhanced maternity/paternity

Location
Our team is home-based, coming together regularly to co-work, and deliver events. You should expect to attend a team collaboration day at least monthly, usually in London. This may require an overnight stay dependent on your location. If you can conduct your role effectively and are willing to travel to maximise growth opportunities, you can be based anywhere in the UK.
