This sort of opportunity doesn’t come around very often.  Serving in a key leadership role at national Church level is a role worth taking a close look at.  Reporting to the Chair, you will work alongside the Board of Trustees as well as other key parts of the Free Church of Scotland at a national level - yet you will also support the work of our local churches across Scotland and beyond, and our international mission.

In leading the Central Office, you will shape and implement the Board’s ambitious strategy and priorities, in support of bringing good news to communities.  You will help people join things together, take initiative and pursue the direction of travel.  You will inspire people with your commitment and energy for the ambitions of the Church as well as your professionalism as a leader and manager.  You will understand what good governance is all about in leading an organisation, ensuring effective people management, financial management and risk management.

If you enjoy complexity, are in tune with our values and ethos, and are seeking a role that offers breadth and scope, the opportunity to influence within and beyond the Church, and, ultimately, help bring good news to people, we welcome your interest.  Please read our ‘Information for Applicants’.

CEO of Hamlin Fistula UK

Hamlin Fistula UK is a small charity but we make a big difference to the lives of some of the most vulnerable women in the world. We’re over fifty years old but are now at a time of significant development and, with the retirement of our long-serving CEO, we are looking to appoint someone to take us forward over the next few years.

We are crucial in supporting Hamlin Fistula Ethiopia (HFE) as they work to eradicate the devastating childbirth injury, obstetric fistula, from the country. HFE runs six fistula hospitals, fifty-six health centres, a College of Midwives and a rehabilitative farm and training centre for long-term patients. Our work focuses on supporting them, which we do mainly by providing funding of around £500,000 to Ethiopia each year, raised primarily from individual donations but also from trusts, foundations and legacies.

The CEO post is for 22.5 hours per week which can be worked flexibly across at least three days, with at least one day in our Halesowen office. We are also open to negotiating the working pattern across the year by annualising the hours if appropriate. The salary is £30,000 (£50,000 FTE). Ideally, the successful candidate will be appointed and able to start by October.

The CEO is the sole permanent employee, although there is a contracted fundraiser who works for the charity two days per week. Given that the work of the charity is fundraising, we need someone who has experience in this area, with strong self-motivation skills, the ability to work with our board of trustees, a high degree of financial literacy, excellent written and spoken communication and the interpersonal skills to use these effectively with a wide range of audiences. The post-holder will have the chance to undertake all aspects of the charity’s work – an ideal opportunity for someone who knows about fundraising but wishes to expand their experience into other areas of charity work. Above all, to be successful in the role the new CEO will have to have a genuine commitment to the work and vision of Hamlin Fistula UK.

Hamlin Fistula UK is one of several Hamlin charities across the world and the CEO will be in contact with our Australian sister charity, the Catherine Hamlin Fistula Foundation. And working with senior managers at HFE is an important aspect of the work. In normal times the CEO and Chair of Trustees go to Ethiopia once a year to meet with HFE and the other international partners to discuss targets and budgets for the coming year.

If you think you are the person to take our work forward over the next few years, please see the attached job description for details of how to apply online.

Interim CEO (Maternity leave) 
Office based in central Chelmsford with travel across Essex required. 
Closing date: Midday Friday 11th September 2020

Our Mission

A quarter of a million people in Essex have some degree of hearing loss, nationally that amounts to one in six of the population. Hearing Help Essex exists to alleviate the isolation and loneliness that hearing loss can bring by providing a range of services.

Our Achievements

Founded in Chelmsford in 1990, Hearing Help Essex initially formed to create a local drop-in session for people to receive practical help with their NHS Hearing Aids. As the years rolled on, more Volunteers were recruited, and more sessions were added. Fast-forward to 2020, and we now have 54 Volunteers running up to 28 drop-in sessions each month, supporting over 4,000 individuals each year. In 2017, Hearing Help Essex were awarded two grants from Essex County Council to provide an information, advice, and guidance service combined with reducing isolation service. These projects continue to be hugely successful, and we support over 2,500 individuals each year through these services. 
In 2019, these achievements were recognised by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, and we were presented with The Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service, the highest award for a voluntary group in the United Kingdom.

As of July 2020, face-to-face service delivery has resumed with a new COVID-19 protocol. Our information, advice, and guidance services have been delivered throughout the pandemic, as our mission to support vulnerable people became even more critical as people were asked to self-isolate and shield.

Our Team and Governance

Hearing Help Essex is led by a Board of five Trustees. Our Board draws on a wide range of expertise with experience of the charitable and private sectors.

We have 8 paid staff, 7 of whom are part-time: the Chief Executive, 2 Service coordinators, 1 Data and Finance coordinator, 3 Outreach workers, and 1 office-based information and equipment specialist.

The Role

The current CEO plans to go on maternity leave at Christmas and return no sooner than September 2021. Therefore the Charity are looking for an experienced Charity Leader to fulfil the role for a period of at least 9 months from December 2020, to allow for handover. There may be scope for a future senior role at Hearing Help Essex, subject to strategic priorities and new funding.

Please see the appointment brief for further details.

With a proven track record in senior management and sound business sense, the successful candidate will have exceptional people, communications and leadership skills. Direct experience of the care and housing sector will be important, alongside an understanding of charity sector governance.

We offer a competitive salary and benefits, reflecting the Trustees’ desire to attract the right candidate to this exceptional and rewarding role at a critical time of change for Care Ashore.

Snowdon Trust, a national charity based near Horsham, West Sussex, wishes to appoint a new Chief Executive to start towards the end 2020.
The Trust was established by Lord Anthony Snowdon in 1981 to help people living with a wide range of disabilities to achieve their goals in further or higher education or vocational training. Since 1981 we have given grants of over £4 million to help more than 2,700 people to achieve qualifications and futures that might not otherwise have been possible.
The Trust is in a period of evolution and we would expect the incoming Chief Executive to have an overlap with the current postholder with the express intention of creating new opportunities to develop the Trust as an organisation in order to make a significant difference in the experience of disabled students and those who support them. This may involve reviewing the current portfolio of funding and creating and implementing a 3 to 5 year forward looking strategy for the organisation.
The job description will be flexible to reflect the future direction of the Trust but it would be expected that the ideal candidate will have:
• Proven experience in strategic planning and delivering a growth/development pathway
• Knowledge of relevant legislation and the practical implications for learning/studying with a disability and/or an understanding of disability from a personal experience perspective
• Ability to act as ambassador for the charity including the ability to represent the charity’s aims to the directors of companies, Members of Parliament, and trustees of charitable bodies with a view to increasing support for the charity and extending its income generation, evidence of fundraising experience would be a distinct advantage
• Experience in personnel management and motivation in a small office environment (currently five part-time members of staff). Whilst the physical office is based in Horsham, it may, in time, be possible to create a remote working or virtual office
• Experience in financial control such as liaising with auditors and accountants, preparation of budgets and budgetary control, salaries and taxation, office and personal insurances.
The position is currently part time (around 25 hours per week), but this will be negotiable depending on fulfilling the needs of the Trust.
Applicants should e-mail a covering letter of not more than 2 sides addressing the ideal candidate specification and stating salary expectations along with a CV.
