We are looking for somebody who will work closely alongside the CEO, with experience and understanding of what a growing charity needs to scale up successfully.  A successful candidate will be someone who thrives in a challenging environment and is keen to implement organisational procedures and processes to allow the work of the team to flourish and will inspire and motivate those around them.

The Branch Trust (CIO) is a charity established in 2020 which has grown out of the outreach work of St Mary’s Church, Chipping Norton.  We are a charity serving the most deprived area in West Oxfordshire, where we have identified many barriers and challenges to accessing support and consequently children, families and individuals are failing to thrive (IMD2019).  The Branch Trust has a record of responding to local need quickly and effectively, partnering with other agencies to work holistically, unlocking potential so the individual or whole family can succeed.

We are a charity driven by the Christian faith and committed to serving the market town and the surrounding villages.  In 2019 we bought a building at the heart of Chipping Norton, with tremendous local support we have raised in excess of £4million and are currently converting this building into a community hub.  This will become the base for all the charity’s work, and the role of the COO will be to enable that smooth transition and establish the operations and processes that are needed to oversee the daily operations of the charity.

As a charity we work collaboratively, partnering with other statutory and voluntary agencies, and especially St Mary’s Church, to signpost, support, encourage and empower those who are struggling regardless of age, background, belief and circumstance.
