Location: Hybrid, primarily remote with regular travel across Greater Manchester

Applications close: 9 a.m. Thursday 21st May 2026.

About Pure Insight

Pure Insight is a charity dedicated to supporting young people leaving care to build positive, fulfilling and connected lives. Founded and shaped by people with lived experience, the charity understands the realities many care-experienced young people face and provides long-term, trauma-informed support that helps them feel valued, supported and not alone.

Our work spans mentoring, emotional well-being and mental health support, peer and group activity, support for care leaver parents, employment support and close work with local authorities and other partners.

At the heart of Pure Insight is a belief in belonging, long-term support and community. The charity is ambitious for the future and is looking for a CEO who can help shape that future with care, clarity and courage.

About the role

This is an important interim role for a well-regarded charity supporting care-experienced young people across the North West. Following dedicated leadership from the founder CEO, who will be leaving the organisation in July, Pure Insight is looking for an interim leader who can provide stability, support a strong handover and help the charity maintain momentum while the permanent CEO recruitment process progresses.

The interim CEO will join at a critical point for the organisation. Ideally starting in early to mid-June, you will work closely with the founder CEO ahead of her departure, helping to capture knowledge, strengthen continuity and ensure the organisation is well placed for the months ahead.

Reporting to the Chair and working closely with the Board, the Interim CEO will provide strategic and operational leadership across the charity for an initial period expected to run until at least the end of September.

The immediate priorities for the interim CEO will include supporting operational leadership, ensuring a smooth handover, maintaining organisational focus and bringing additional capacity around fundraising, bid writing and income generation — you will ensure the charity can continue to build financial resilience during the interim period.

This is likely to be a part-time interim role, anticipated to be around three days per week. The organisation is looking for someone who can start as soon as possible, ideally in early to mid-June, to allow for a meaningful handover period with the outgoing founder CEO.

The successful candidate will help ensure that Pure Insight remains stable, focused and well supported during this leadership transition. You will work closely with the senior team, trustees and outgoing CEO to capture key organisational knowledge, maintain service quality, support operational decision-making and provide confidence to staff, funders and partners.

Key responsibilities

• Provide calm, values-led interim leadership during a period of transition.
• Work closely with the outgoing founder CEO to support an effective handover.
• Provide operational oversight and support to the senior team.
• Maintain focus on service quality, safeguarding and trauma-informed practice.
• Support fundraising, bid writing and income generation activity.
• Work with the Chair and Board to ensure organisational stability and continuity.
• Help prepare the charity for the arrival of a permanent CEO.

Who we are looking for

We are looking for an experienced interim or senior charity leader who can quickly build trust, bring structure and provide steady leadership.

You will be comfortable working in a small, emotionally sensitive and mission-led organisation. You will understand the importance of continuity, communication and judgement during a leadership transition.

The ideal candidate will bring:

• Senior leadership experience in a charity or mission-driven organisation.
• Experience as a CEO, Interim CEO, Director or senior operational leader.
• Strong operational and people leadership skills.
• Experience in fundraising, bid writing or income generation.
• The ability to support a founder-led handover with care and sensitivity.
• Good judgement, emotional intelligence and a calm leadership style.
• An understanding of trauma-informed practice, safeguarding or working with vulnerable young people.

Why join Pure Insight?

This is a meaningful opportunity to support a well-regarded charity at an important moment in its development.

You will help provide continuity for a committed team, an engaged Board and the young people Pure Insight supports, while contributing practical leadership, fundraising insight and transition support.

For an experienced interim leader, this is a chance to make a tangible difference quickly, helping Pure Insight move through change with confidence, care and stability.

You will lead teams with compassion and purpose, embedding Deaf culture and equality at the heart of everything we do. As our ambassador, you’ll also influence partners, funders, and policymakers to broaden our reach and impact.

To be our next Chief Executive you will bring strategic leadership experience with a proven record of accountability, financial stewardship, strong governance, and organisational growth. You’re a confident communicator and influencer, comfortable building partnerships and leading campaigns. Above all, you share our values of inclusion, integrity, and community.

The work supporting children, young people and their families is delivered by a team of clinical staff and volunteers, who work with families in their own homes. Because of this regular travel is involved, often at the end of the school day. We regularly provide support for between 400-500 children and young people each year.
