About the role
This is a hands-on, people-focused role at the heart of our programme delivery. As Programme Manager, you’ll work closely with communities, colleagues, volunteers, and partners to co-create and deliver meaningful programmes that centre on women’s voices and lived experience.
You will be responsible for managing the day-to-day running of projects — from design and facilitation through to coordination, evaluation, and reporting. The role involves a high level of collaboration across departments and with external partners, as well as ongoing work with participants and volunteers to ensure our programmes are inclusive, responsive, and impactful.
You’ll be at the forefront of delivery: holding safe, welcoming spaces; supporting others to take on facilitation roles; and helping build confidence and leadership among women involved in our work. At the same time, you’ll ensure strong systems, clear communication, and smooth operations across every stage of a programme — including the coordination of all logistics, administration, and communications needed to make programme delivery run effectively. As the work is people-focused and often deeply personal, you’ll need to feel confident navigating sensitive conversations, responding to complex situations with care, and creating space for trust and honesty.
This role would suit someone grounded in values that centre lived experience, challenge inequality, and uplift women’s voices — someone who is passionate about working alongside women, committed to social justice, and energised by collaboration, care, and collective learning.

Community, Partnerships & Influence
· Build and nurture meaningful partnerships with local organisations, health and social care providers, academic institutions, and networks to strengthen our reach and influence.
· Develop strong, trust-based relationships with programme participants, recognising and building on their strengths, supporting their progression into volunteer or facilitator roles, and embedding co-production principles into project delivery.

· Develop and monitor programme budgets and work with the Head of Programmes to report against spend.
· Work with SLT to support with research and applications for funding opportunities to support programme delivery and financial sustainability.
· Manage relationships with funders and corporate partners, reporting on outcomes and impact.
Policy, Safeguarding & Organisational Development
