Change director jobs
Hands Together Ludlow works with partners, stakeholders and volunteers to create a more equitable community in and around Ludlow by reducing isolation, poor health and wellbeing and financial hardship. By bringing volunteers and beneficiaries together though a range of services, we fill the gaps, provide opportunities and support the community to support itself. We believe in building resilience and not dependence.
Our new Chief Operations Officer will pick up the baton passed by our departing COO who took on the challenge with gusto. Our new post holder will be able to build on the current activities and draw on their own skills and experience to take HTL to the next stage in its development.
Job Summary
Providing help, support and opportunities to over 600 people each year, HTL plays a vital role in the town. We are looking for an exceptional individual to take HTL into the next stage in its development. You will be joining a robust organisation with clear policies and procedures in place, in excellent financial order and with a competent, committed and professional staff team.

You will be based in our Ludlow office, with some activity in other venues in the town as required.
You will be an organised and enthusiastic individual with experience of management (preferably in the charity or third sector arena), ready to join an organisation where no day is the same. If you enjoy working in a collaborative environment, have excellent organisational skills, are passionate about supporting the people of Ludlow and you share our values, then this is an ideal opportunity for you. We’d love to hear from you.

About the role
This is a fixed-term opportunity for an experienced Charity Shop Manager to join our team at our Exeter-based charity.
This new role will combine providing support and/or absence cover to our existing shops, along with getting involved in other opportunities for growth and development across the retail team (e.g. volunteering). Working in the shops may involve working to support the shop manager, or stepping in for them at short notice (and quickly getting to grips with their shop, processes, staff, volunteers and customers). This will be balanced according to business needs.
The nature of this role means that you will need to be capable of both leading or being part of a team consisting of shop assistants and volunteers.
There will also be times when you will be working on your own or with our Head of Retail and Enterprise at our Exeter base. The most important thing is that you will be helping us to achieve and exceed business targets for sales, growth and profits.
You will be based either at one of our charity shops, or at our main base in Exeter (to be discussed at interview).
About you
We’re looking for someone with prior management experience in charity retail, and demonstrable knowledge of the sector and its challenges. You will be self-motivated, commercially aware with a creative eye for displays, and constantly seeking new business opportunities. You will be comfortable with both acting as shop manager, and supporting the existing shop team, depending on the situation.
You will have excellent interpersonal, communication and customer care skills and be a person who motivates their team and creates a safe and energetic working environment.
There is a need to travel to different shops in Exeter and East Devon (depending on business needs) so a driving licence and willingness to drive InFocus vehicles is important.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
Thank you!
