Let’s Talk About Loss is delighted to be recruiting a part-time Charity Lead to guide us through an important transition period.

Founded in 2018, Let’s Talk About Loss supports young adults aged 18–35 who are bereaved, creating safe, supportive spaces to talk openly about grief. We are a small, values-led charity with a national reach, built on the power of community, peer support and shared experience.

This role has been created as maternity cover and will play a crucial part in delivering Year 1 of our new 2026–2029 strategy. We are looking for someone who can bring steadiness, organisation and care , ensuring our services continue safely and consistently, income generation is secure, and governance and safeguarding remain strong.

This is a delivery-focused leadership role, not a growth or expansion post. It would suit someone who enjoys rolling up their sleeves, working closely with trustees and volunteers, and taking responsibility in a small organisation — for example, someone looking to grow their leadership experience, or to step sideways into a values-led role with real responsibility.

We’re looking for someone who:

• Is motivated by our vision that no young griever grieves alone, and brings care, integrity and compassion to their work.

• Is highly organised and delivery-focused, with a strong ability to prioritise, follow through and manage competing demands in a part-time role.

• Has hands-on experience of income generation, particularly grant fundraising and reporting, and is confident overseeing budgets and cashflow.

• Is comfortable working closely with trustees and volunteers, providing clear information and support to enable good decision-making and safe delivery.

• Understands the importance of safeguarding, inclusion and accessibility in community-led or peer-support services.

• Brings a calm, reliable and practical approach, particularly during periods of change or transition.

Do you have experience working with under-served communities and leading impactful outreach projects? Are you passionate about improving access to support for families of children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND)?

IPSEA is the leading charity in the field of SEND law in England, and we provide free and independent legal advice and support to families of children and young people with SEND. We also provide training on the SEND legal framework, and we influence policy at both a local and national level.
