Position: Executive Director
Charity Number: 1162185
A company limited by guarantee: 08852728
Background
The Bow Foodbank Limited (BFBL) is a registered charity, founded in 2014. We are one of London’s largest independent food banks. Our mission is to support those in financial crisis through the provision of food and essential items, and through additional free confidential support with legal, welfare and benefits issues.
The charity was formed by a coalition of community and faith-based organisations in response to the growing local need for emergency food support. Our operating model is underpinned by the desire to protect the dignity of those who ask for support.
A key element of our approach is that we do not ask clients for personal information about themselves, only demographic questions.
We have two foodbanks, both within Tower Hamlets - one in Bow which operates on a Monday and the second in Bethnal Green which operates on a Wednesday. We now provide food for over 400 adults and around 750 children, every week. This number continues to grow as the impact of the cost-of-living crisis hits those most vulnerable.
Pre-pandemic the organisation was entirely run by volunteers, but as the scale of operations increased, we were fortunate in taking on staff to manage day to day operations and support the 200+ volunteers. In addition to the Executive Director post, we currently have a full-time Operations Manager and a part-time Volunteer Coordinator/Administrator.

The Driver Youth Trust is a literacy-based charity that has, for the past twelve years, been working to support children who struggle with literacy in mainstream schools, through training, advocacy, and research.
One in six adults in the UK can be described as having poor literacy skills and one in four five-year olds struggle with basic vocabulary. Early intervention is key as each year the attainment gap widens for tens of thousands of learners with dyslexia, literacy difficulties and SEND who fall further behind their peers. We believe that every child needs to be able to read and write fluently and at Driver Youth Trust we are committed to making a difference and working hard to change these statistics.
Our mission is to transform learning and inclusion in schools. The Executive Director will play a crucial role in enabling the Driver Youth Trust to promote the on-line courses we have developed over the last two years, making them available as a free resource for teachers and teaching assistants.
We are seeking to recruit an enthusiastic and dynamic Executive Director, who will work with the Board to set and drive a new strategy for the charity that delivers upon this core mission.
The post holder will be a positive, creative, enthusiastic individual with a ‘can do’ attitude, who thrives on taking responsibility for actions, overcoming obstacles, and delivering on our mission. You will become the face of DYT and have the ability to enthuse and engage others in our cause, as well as maintaining the trust of those people with whom the organisation deals, including funding bodies.
The role requires an ability to engage with schools, teachers and local authorities in a way that encourages them to take advantage of our free courses thereby training their staff, so they in turn can support pupils in their classrooms who struggle with literacy. You will be responsible for the effective management of the charity, including day to day financial management, administration of IT systems, HR, governance requirements, fundraising, KPI tracking and reporting, assisted by an Operations Coordinator, to be recruited. As part of your role, you will also manage an external team of specialist consultants.
The successful candidate will be committed to our vision and have:
- A good understanding of the educational sector.
- Recent experience of leadership in a charity, not-for-profit, private, or public sector organisation.
- Experience of financial management including managing budgets and the skills necessary for day-to-day running of a small organization.
- The ability to plan, report, and present to the board.
- Experience of building strategic relationships and partnerships with key stakeholders.
- Excellent communication skills (both verbal and written), presentation (digital and face-to-face) and interpersonal skills.
- Track record of successful income generation, through trust or foundation funding or other fundraising,
- The ability to work by themselves delivering on the mission of the charity.
It would be desirable that this individual had an established network of contacts and organisations, which may go beyond immediate educational stakeholders, who could help deliver our objectives. Experience of managing external consultants and project management would also be useful, as would evidence of forming effective local, regional, or national partnerships. However, we are eager to hear from all candidates that meet the essential criteria for the role.
Driver Youth Trust are passionate about making a difference to the lives of young people who struggle to read and write. If you would like to join a not-for-profit organisation that is committed to working together to improve learning and inclusion in schools, we would love to hear from you!

The purpose of South Hams Community and Voluntary Services is to support and represent the local voluntary, community and social enterprise sector in the South Hams District of Devon. We support existing organisations to develop and help new groups to start up, by providing one to one advice, training, networking opportunities and information, and brokering collaborations and partnership. We also act as a point of contact with the local voluntary and community sector for local authorities and other agencies, and seek to ensure the sector is able to engage in strategy and policy-making.
Our vision is for South Hams to be a place where voluntary and community action thrives and where voluntary and community organisations are dynamic, resilient, sustainable and inclusive, playing a central role in building strong cohesive communities, and improving the quality of life and environment for all.
As Chief Officer you will provide leadership and strategic direction, and be responsible for the programme of activities and day-to-day management of South Hams Community and Voluntary Services. This is an exciting opportunity to join a dynamic organisation at an important time, supporting voluntary and community organisations in the South Hams District at a time of great change.
