• Collaborate closely with service users, families, regulators, and commissioners.
• Ensure estate design and decisions reflect the needs of vulnerable individuals and inclusive practice.

 
What You’ll Bring
 
We’re looking for a standout leader who blends technical excellence with strategic vision and who’s ready to make a meaningful difference through place, design, and leadership.
 
Essential experience and qualities include:

• Inspirational leadership with the ability to motivate multidisciplinary teams
• A proactive, collaborative mindset with excellent stakeholder engagement skills

 
Desirable: Professional qualifications (e.g. RICS, CIOB, IWFM) or experience in health, education, or social care settings.
 
Why Join Us?
 
This is a rare opportunity to shape the future of a unique charity with a proud history and bold ambitions. You’ll be joining a values-driven Executive Team, leading one of our most critical functions at a time of real growth and innovation.
